A professional golfer crushes a golf ball off the tee a horizontal distance of 310 m (see photo). The ball leaves the tee at an angle of 45° with respect to the horizontal. If the head of the driver is in contact with the 45-g ball for 1.0 ms, calculate the average force exerted on the ball by the driver.

Newton’s Third Law of Motion

The horse pulls the cart and the cart pulls the horse in response as per Newton third law. So the big question is, “Don’t the two forces cancel each other? How does the cart accelerate?”

Most of us know intuitively that in a head-on collision between a large dump truck and a subcompact car, you are better off being in the truck than in the car. Why is this? Many people imagine that the collision force exerted on the car is much greater than that exerted on the truck. To substantiate this view, they point out that the car is crushed, whereas the truck is only dented. This idea of unequal forces, of course, is false; Newton's third law tells us that both objects are acted upon by forces of the same magnitude. The truck suffers less damage because it is made of stronger metal. But what about the two drivers? Do they experience the same forces? To answer this question, suppose that each vehicle is initially moving at 8.10 m/s and that they undergo a perfectly inelastic head-on collision. Each driver has mass 73.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4,000 kg for the truck. If the collision time is 0.130 s,…
you were told that the girl's mass was three-fourths that of the boy's mass. The boy has a velocity of v = 0.77 m/s to the left. What would be the girl's velocity in this case? (Consider the ice to be frictionless. Enter the magnitude only.)
An 70 kg basketball player lands from a jump and tries to stop her forward motion or momentum. The normal contact force exerted by the floor on her shoes is 2800 N. The frictional force exerted by the floor on her shoes is 800 N and this force acts posteriorly on the player. There was minimal medial-lateral force during the landing and so this component of the ground reaction force can be ignored. What is the resultant ground reaction force exerted by the floor on the basketball player's shoes? How many times greater than the player's body weight is this resultant ground reaction force calculated in part the first part?

A woman weighing 57.1 kg stands at one end of a 120-kg raft that is 6.00 m long. The other end of the raft is 0.500 m from a pier. So, before the woman moves, she is at a total distance of 6.50 m away from the pier. The woman walks toward the pier until she gets to the other end of the uniform raft and stops there. What is the distance between the uniform raft and the pier?

You’re an accident investigator at a scene where a drunk driver in a 2200 kg car has plowed into a 1400 kg parked car with its brake set. You measure skid marks showing that the combined wreckage moved 20 m before stopping, and you determine a frictional coefficient of 0.78. What do you report for the drunk driver’s speed just before the collision?
