A footballer kicks a ball from rest. The foot is in contact with the ball for 0.30s and the final velocity of the ball is 15ms-1 .What is the average acceleration of the ball?

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

initial velocity u= 0m/s since the ball is at rest

time of contact t= 0.3s

final velocity v=15m/s

Required

acceleration a

from the first law of motion

v=u+at

substitute our given data

15=0+a*0.3

15=0.3a

divide both sides by 0.3

a=15/0.3

a=50m/s

The average acceleration is 50m/s^2

(75°f − 32) × 5/9 = 23.889°c

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
