The linear impulse delivered by the hit of a
boxer is 229 N · s during the 0.504 s of contact.
What is the magnitude of the average force
exerted on the glove by the other boxer?
Answer in units of N
To find the magnitude of the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer, we need to use the formula:
Impulse = Force × Time
Rearranging the formula, we have:
Force = Impulse / Time
Substituting the given values:
Impulse = 229 N · s
Time = 0.504 s
We can now calculate the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer:
Force = 229 N · s / 0.504 s
Simplifying the equation will give us the answer.
