Some people say that the “force of inertia” (or “force of momentum”) throws the passengers forward when a car brakes sharply. What is wrong with this explanation?
A high-speed photograph of a club hitting a golf ball is shown in the figure below.
The club was in contact with a ball, initially at rest, for about 0.0024 s. If the ball has a mass of 55 g and leaves the head of the club with a speed of 1.9 x 102 ft/s, find the average force (in kN) exerted on the ball by the club.

Mary is trying to stop a 5 kg bowling ball that is rolling toward her. Its horizontal velocity is 8.0 m/s when she begins to stop it. It takes her 2.0 s to stop the ball. What average force did Mary exert on the ball during this 2.0 s to stop it?
