Asked by Stefan

If a player kicks a stationary football with a horizontal force of 25 N (Newtons), what will be the football's acceleration? How far will the football move in 2.0 seconds? The mass of the football is 0.40 kg.

Given:
Force = 25N
Time = 2.0 seconds
Mass of football = 0.40 kg

So first, we have to solve for the acceleration.
a = F/m = 25N/0.40kg = 62.5 m/s^2
a = 62.5 m/s^2

How far will the football move in 2.0 seconds?

Now that we have the acceleration, it is now time to calculate the distance.
d = 1/2 * a * t^2 = 1/2 x 62.5 m/s^2 x 2.0s^2 = 125 m
d = 125m

The football's acceleration is 62.5m/s^2
The football will move up to 125 meters in 2.0 seconds

Hope this helps and keep on learning!
