Finding the Force on a Ball from a Dent (10:24)
|
We use the Work Energy Theorem to solve the following … A 67 N ball is dropped from a height of 79.8 cm above a bag of sand. If the ball makes a 9.0 mm deep dent in the sand, what is the average force the sand applies on the ball during the collision?
This is an AP Physics 1 and AP Physics C: Mechanics topic. Content Times: 0:00 The problem 0:58 One Problem Solving Strategy 1:42 Using the Work Energy Theorem 5:06 Which work equation do we use? 7:08 Several Mistakes We Made 8:57 Why is the force applied so large? |
