The catapult on an aircraft carrier can take an aircraft weighing 196,359 N from 0 to 92 m/s in 2.1 seconds, at which time the aircraft launches. What is the force generated by the catapult in order to launch the aircraft?

A person catches a ball with a mass of 145 g dropped from a height of 60.0 m above his glove. His hand stops the ball in 0.0100 s. What is the force exerted by his glove on the ball? Assume the ball slows down with constant acceleration.

A commercial airplane is coming in for a landing. Just before it hits the runway it is moving at 76 m/s. The plane has a mass of 20,000 kg. The runway is 1.6km long and, obviously, the airplane needs to be stopped before it reaches the end of the runway. How large is the braking force the airplane needs to stop safely before the end of the runway?

A 47,700 N car is traveling a 25 m/s.  The brakes are applied suddenly, and the car slides to a stop.  The average braking force between the tires and the road is 7100 N.  How far will the car slide once the brakes are applied?

A woman at an airport is rolling her suitcase (mass = 20 kg) at an initial velocity of 1 m/s by pulling on a strap at an angle of 30° above the horizontal with a force of 33 N. The woman starts to speed up when she realizes that she is late for her flight. She pulls the suitcase over a distance of 50 m as she walks to her gate. What is the speed of the suitcase when she reaches her gate? (You can neglect friction in this problem. Give your answer in m/s.)

An object is pushed in x and y directions with the force vector F=-230i+10j (N). The object weighs 20kg and goes through a displacement of r=-2i-5j (m). What would be the final velocity of the object?

The Earth pulls downward on a pingpong ball with a force  of 1N. If this is the "action" force, what is the "reaction" force? answer choices The ground exerts a force of 1N on the ping pong ball The ping pong ball exerts a force of 1 N on the Earth The ping pong ball pushes down on the earth with a force of 1N The is no reaction force when a gravitational force is involved

An object has a mass of 15.3 kg and it has an initial velocity of 31.3 m/s (South) when it is acted upon by a force. The object's final velocity after the force has acted for a period of 5.20 s is 14.7 m/s (South). What is the force that acted on the object?

A bowling ball weighing 46.5 N initially moves at a speed of 5.10 m/s. How long must a force of 44.5 N be applied to the ball to stop it?

A constant horizontal force F = 200 N is applied for a time 0.1 s by a kick to a soccer ball of mass m=0.4 kg. If the ball was initially traveling toward the player at 20 m/s, what is the speed as it leaves her foot traveling in the opposite direction?  Choose the correct answer. 50 m/s 20 m/s 10 m/s 30 m/s 70 m/s
