Why does it hurt more when you fall on concrete than on grass?

Physics

Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago

Answer:

Smaller forces are easier on your legs and you prefer to land on soft grass. Momentum/impulse explanation: Whether you land on concrete or soft grass, your change in momentum will be identical. A hard surface that brings you to a stop in 0.01 s requires a much larger force of 15,000 N.

Suppose a soccer player kicks the ball from a distance 29 m toward the goal. find the initial speed of the ball if it just passe
Rudik [331]

The ball's vertical velocity at the time it just passes over the goal is 0 m/s. Its initial vertical velocity is unknown and we denote it by v\sin39^\circ, where v here is the ball's initial speed. Vertically, the only force acting on the ball is gravity, which attributes a downward acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2. We expect the maximum height achieved by the ball to be 2.4 m, so we can find the initial speed by solving

\left(0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2-\left(v\sin39^\circ\right)^2=2\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2.4\,\mathrm m)

\implies v=11\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

If C is 1kg and D is 100kg, and the initial velocities of both balls are 5m/s, how would the magnitude of the forces exerted by
kupik [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

The forces exerted by each mass is best understood in terms of their momentum.

Momentum is a sort of compelling force or impulse. It is given as:

                  Momentum  =  mass x velocity

Let us consider the momentum of the balls;

Substance C;

    Mass  = 1kg

     Velocity  = 5m/s

    Momentum of C = 1 x 5  = 5kgm/s

Substance D:

      Mass  = 100kg

      Velocity  = 5m/s

     Momentum of D  = 100kg x 5m/s  = 500kgm/s

Body D has a higher momentum compared to Body C. This suggests that body D will exert a higher force than C when they collide.

The higher the momentum, the more the force of impact it has.

a 5.00 kg plane is speeding up on the ground with an applied force of 706 N. If the net force is 450 N, what would be the force
loris [4]

Answer:

The force due to air resistance is 256 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the plane, m = 5 kg

applied force on the plane, Fa = 706 N

the net force on the plane, ∑F= 450 N

Let the force due to air resistance = Fr

The net force on the plane is given as;

Net force = applied force - force due to air resistance

∑F = Fa - Fr

Fr = Fa - ∑F

Fr = 706 - 450

Fr = 256 N.

Therefore, the force due to air resistance is 256 N.
