Please help me. During a football game, one of the players on the home team kicks the football that has a
mass of 0.6 kg so that the ball accelerates toward the opposing team at
23 m/s2. If no other forces act on the ball, how much force did the kicker apply to the
football?

Explanation:

Given

Required

Determine the applied force

From the question, we understand that no other force acts on the ball.

i.e. the only applied force on the ball is the force applied by the striker.

So, we apply Newton's second law to solve this question.

And this implies that:

Hence, the applied force by the striker on the ball is 13.8N

0.11 m/s and 0.28 m/s should be correct
