In a lacrosse game a ball is thrown with a force of 2000 N. The throwing force acted for 0.8
seconds. If the ball had a change in velocity, Av, of 50 m/s, what is the mass of the ball?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Mass, m = 32 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 2000 N

The change in velocity, (v-u) = 50 m/s

Time, t = 0.8 s

We need to find the mass of the ball. The net force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma

Where a is acceleration

[tex]F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\m=\dfrac{Ft}{(v-u)}\\\\m=\dfrac{2000\times 0.8}{50}\\\\m=32\ kg[/tex]

So, the mass of the ball is 32 kg.
