A soccer player takes a ball applying a force of 1000 net tons over a distance of 0.2 m the bolt travels 50 m down the field before another player stops the ball. How much work was done during the kick?
To calculate the work done during the kick, we can use the formula:
Work = Force x Distance
Given:
Force = 1000 net tons = 1000 x 2000 lb x 9.8 N/lb = 19,600,000 N
Distance = 0.2 m
Work = 19,600,000 N x 0.2 m
Work = 3,920,000 Nm (or Joules)
Therefore, the work done during the kick is 3,920,000 Joules.
