A physical therapy exercise has a person shaking a 5kg dumbbell up and down rapidly. If the barbell is moving at 4.5m/a what is the magnitude of the force required to stop it in .333 seconds

The magnitude of the force required to stop the barbell in .333 seconds is 15N. This can be calculated using the equation F = m*a, where F is the force, m is the mass of the barbell (5kg), and a is the acceleration (4.5m/s^2). Therefore, F = 5kg * 4.5m/s^2 = 15N.

HUH ??
a = change in velocity / change in time
so
a = 4.5 m/s / 0.333 s = 13.5 m/s^2
F = m a = 5 * 13.5 = 67.6 Newtons
