- Please have answers computer typed.arrow_forwardA stationary golf ball (with a mass of 0.125kg) is struck by a golf club with an average force of 417N. The ball and club are in contact for approximately 0.013 seconds. Determine the velocity of the ball when it leaves contact with the club. (Report your answer in m/s, but only enter the numerical value.)arrow_forwardA hockey goalie is standing on ice. Another player fires a puck (m = 0.170 kg) at the goalie with a velocity of +46.7 m/s. (a) If the goalie catches the puck with his glove in a time of 2.34 x 10 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the goalie by the puck? (b) Instead of catching the puck, the goalie slaps it with his stick and returns the puck straight back to the player with a velocity of -46.7 m/s. The puck and stick are in contact for a time of 2.34 x 10 s. Now, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the goalie by the puck?
