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 0.0042 s. If the ball has a mass of 55 g and leaves the head of the club with a speed of 1.5 x 102 ft/s, find the average force (in kN) exerted on the ball by the club.

A soccer goalkeeper accelerates a ball from rest at a speed of 15 m / s for the time that his foot is in contact with the ball (approximately 0.19 s). If the ball has a mass of 0.44 kg, what average force does the goalkeeper exert on the ball?
Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in Figure (a) below. They "push off" and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = 0.720 m/s to the left. If the boy weighs 733 N and the girl weighs 486 N, what is the girl's velocity (in m/s) after they push off? (Consider the ice to be frictionless.) ν ?
A tennis ball is flying east towards the wall with a speed of 40.3 m/s. After bounced against the wall, it's flying west with a speed of 28.2 m/s. If the mass of the ball is 0.1 kg, and the time of collision with the wall is 0.033 second, what is the magnitude of force on the wall during this process in unit of Newton?
A baseball (m= 150 g) approaches a bat horizontally at a speed of 43.9 m/s (98.2 mi/h) and is hit straight back at a speed of 52.6 m/s (118 mi/h). If the ball is in contact with the bat for a time of 1.27 ms, what is the average force exerted on the ball by the bat? Neglect the weight of the bat, since it is so much less than the force of the bat. Choose the direction of the incoming ball as the positive direction. Number i Units VO Vf
Find the center of mass of a 120-cm long rod, made of 60 cm of iron (density 8.5 g/cm3) and 60 cm of aluminum (density 2.9 g/cm3). Express the location of the center of mass as measured from the left of the rod, assuming that the iron part of the rod is on the left and the aluminum part is on the right.
After falling from rest from a height of 25 m, a 0.30-kg ball rebounds upward, reaching a height of 15 m. If the contact between ball and ground lasted 2.1 ms, what average force was exerted on the ball? (Enter the magnitude.)
After falling from rest from a height of 31 m, a 0.60-kg ball rebounds upward, reaching a height of 21 m. If the contact between ball and ground lasted 2.5 ms, what average force was exerted on the ball?
A hockey player slaps a puck into a cushion, which brings the puck to rest. If the puck's initial velocity was +40 m/s and it has a mass of 170 g, what force does the cushion apply to the puck? Assume the cushion acts on the puck for 0.03 s and the surface that the puck slides on is frictionless.
Two ice skaters stand together as illustrated in Figure (a). They "push off" and travel directly away from each other, the boy with a velocity of v = +0.42 m/s. If the boy weighs 718 N and the girl 450 N, what is the girl's velocity after they push off? (Consider the ice to be frictionless.)
A baseball (m = 148 g) approaches a bat horizontally at a speed of 40.7 m/s (91.1 mi/h) and is hit straight back at a speed of 51.6 m/s (115 mi/h). If the ball is in contact with the bat for a time of 1.45 ms, what is the average force exerted on the ball by the bat? Neglect the weight of the bat, since it is so much less than the force of the bat. Choose the direction of the incoming ball as the positive direction.
