Chapter 12, Problem 1IP
How much force must be applied by a kicker to give a stationary 2.5-kg ball an acceleration of 40 m/s2? (Answer: 100 N)
Expert Solution & Answer
Summary Introduction
To determine: The force applied by a kicker on a stationary ball.
Answer to Problem 1IP
The force applied by a kicker on a stationary ball is
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
Write an expression to find the force.
Here, m is the mass of the ball, a is the acceleration, and F is the force on ball.
Substitute 2.5 kg for m and
Conclusion
Therefore, the force applied by a kicker on a stationary ball is

According to Jean Buridan’s equation, the momentum or “impetus” of an 88 kilogram mass moving at 5 meters per second would be:
110 kilogram-meters per second
220 kilogram-meters per second
440 kilogram-meters per second
660 kilogram-meters per second
880 kilogram-meters per second
The “mean-speed theorem” for finding average velocity under constant acceleration, proposed by the Oxford Calculators, and demonstrated geometrically by Nicole Oresme, is expressed algebraically as:
density = weight/volume
(m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2)
(vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf)
s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2)
velocity = distance/time
The “mean-speed theorem” for calculating average velocity under constant acceleration, developed by Thomas Bradwardine and the Mertonian Calculators at Oxford University, is expressed algebraically as:
density = weight/volume
(m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2)
C. (vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf)
s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2)
velocity = distance/time
