Make a list of the SUVAT equations (look it up) and keep it handy. There is enough information given to find the acceleration if you choose the right equation from the list.JustynSC said:Oops. Yes the initial velocity is equal to 35.0m/s
My frist attempt would have been a free body diagram depicting a ball traveling at the suggested speed coming in contact with the glove (or any object that acts against the ball's velocity. This in turn means there must be an opposing force (acceleration in the opposite direction of the ball's travel.) But since I don't know the acceleration, (or the time interval it took for the velocity to reach )m/s from 35m/s. how can I calculate that piece of information?
The formula for calculating average forces on an object is: F = m x a, where F represents force, m represents mass, and a represents acceleration.
To find the average force on an object with multiple forces acting on it, you need to add all the forces together and divide by the number of forces. This will give you the average force acting on the object.
Average forces are typically measured in Newtons (N) in the metric system and pounds (lbs) in the imperial system.
Yes, the average force on an object can be zero if the net force acting on the object is zero. This means that all the forces cancel each other out, resulting in no overall force.
By calculating the average force acting on an object and knowing its mass, you can use Newton's second law (F = m x a) to determine the object's acceleration. This acceleration can then be used to predict the object's motion, such as its speed and direction.
