<span><u>Answer </u>
The mass of 220 lb football has less than 288 lb football. So, it will be easier to move it since it will require less force. The heavy football will have a bigger momentum. Since 288 lb has more weight than 220 lb, it will have bigger inertia making it difficult for the players to stop it.
This makes it easier to tackle 220 lb football than 288 lb football.

There are several scientific aspects that require to be comprehended beforehand;

Force = mass * acceleration

Weight = mass * gravity (10m/s)

Momentum = mass * velocity

Inertia is a property of mass which is the tendency of an object to remain at constant velocity unless acted upon by an outside force.

Based on these formulae, it is evident that if the 220lb player and 288lb player are moving at the same velocity, the 288lb player has more inertia and momentum than the 22olb. Therefore, it would require more force (hence energy) to change the direction or the speed (in tackling) of the player with 288lb compared with what would be required on the 220lb player.

Calculate the magnitude and the direction of the resultant forces​
snow_tiger [21]

answer:

resultant = 127.65 in the positive direction

explanation:

F1 = 50N , F2 = 40N, f3 = 55N , f4 = 60N

Fy = 50 sin 50 = 50 × -0.26 = -13

Fx = 40 cos 0 = 40×1 = 40

fx = 55 cos 25 = 55×0.99 = 54.45

Fy = 60 sin 70 = 60 × 0.77 = 46.2

resultant = -13+40+54.45+46.2 = 127.65 in the positive direction

timama [110]

Answer:

c. 48 cm/s/s

Explanation:

Anna Litical and Noah Formula are experimenting with the effect of mass and net force upon the acceleration of a lab cart. They determine that a net force of F causes a cart with a mass of M to accelerate at 48 cm/s/s. What is the acceleration value of a cart with a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F?

from newtons second law of motion ,

which states that change in momentum is directly proportional to the force applied.

we can say that

f=m(v-u)/t

a=acceleration

t=time

v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

since a=(v-u)/t

f=m*a

force applied is F

m =mass of the object involved

a is the acceleration of the object involved

f=m*48.........................1

in the second case ;a mass of 2M when acted upon by a net force of 2F

f=ma

a=2F/2M

substituting equation 1

a=2(M*48)/2M

a=. 48 cm/s/s
