If a soccer ball’s mass is 5 kg and a player who weighs 50 kg kicks the soccer ball forward with a force of 5 N , how much force does the ball exert on the player’s foot and in what direction?(1 point)
10 kg/N backward
10 kg/N backward
100 kg forward
100 kg forward
5 N forward
5 N forward
5 N backward
The force exerted by the ball on the player's foot would be equal and opposite to the force exerted by the player on the ball. Therefore, the force exerted by the ball on the player's foot would also be 5 N, but in the backward direction.
So the answer is: 5 N backward.
