Researchers studying the possible effects of “heading” a soccer ball--hitting it with the head--use a force plate to measure the interaction force between a ball and a hard surface. shows smoothed data of the force when a 430 g soccer ball is fired horizontally at the force plate with a speed of 13 m/s.
A rocket has a total mass of 1.01 105 kg and a burnout mass of 1.14 104 kg, including engines, shell and payload. The rocket blasts off from Earth and exhausts all its fuel in 4.31 min, burning the fuel at a steady rate with an exhaust velocity of ve= 4.66 103 m/s.
