Question

a footballer took a penalty kick and ball moved with a velocity of 4mls, calculate the work done by the footballer if the mass of the ball was 40g​

Answer 1

Answer:

Work done = 80 gm/s

Explanation:

Given:

Final velocity (v) = 4 m/s

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Mass of ball (m) = 40 g

Find:

Work done.

Computation:

Using work energy rule

Work done = Change in kinetic energy

Work done = 1/2[mv-mu]

Work done = 1/2[(40)(4) - (40)(0)]

Work done = 1/2[(40)(4)]

Work done = 80 gm/s
