A 0.240 kg hockey puck has a velocity of 1.70 m/s toward the east (the +x direction) as it slides over
the frictionless surface of a frozen lake. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the average
force that must act on the puck during a 0.460 s interval to change its velocity to 6.20 m/s west?
What are the (c) magnitude and (d) direction of the average force that must act on the puck during a
0.460 s interval to change its velocity to 6.20 m/s south? Give your directions as positive
(counterclockwise) angles measured from the +x direction.
A barefoot field-goal kicker imparts a speed of 34 m/s to a football initially at rest.
If the football has a mass of 0.31 kg and the time of contact with the ball is 0.019 s, what is the magnitude of the force exerted by the ball on the kicker’s foot?Answer in units of N.
Problem
14. A 3800-kg jet touches down at 240 km/h on the
deck of an aircraft carrier, and immediately
deploys a parachute to slow itself down. If the
plane comes to a stop in 170 m, what is the
average force of air on the parachute? Assume the
parachute provides essentially all the stopping
force.

- A 53.8-kg skater is standing at rest in front of a wall. By pushing against the wall she propels herself backward with a velocity of -2.10 m/s. Her hands are in contact with the wall for 0.550 s. Ignore friction and wind resistance. Find the average force she exerts on the wall (which has the same magnitude, but opposite direction, as the force that the wall applies to her).
