Chapter 6, Problem 46P
* BIO Bone fracture The zygomatic bone in the upper part of the cheek can be fractured by a 900-N force lasting 6.0 ms or longer. A hockey puck can easily exert such a force when hitting an unprotected face. (a) What change in velocity of a 0.17-kg hockey puck is needed to provide that impulsive force? What assumptions did you make? (b) A padded facemask doubles the stopping time. By how much does it change the force on the face? Explain.

An I-beam is driven into the ground using a pile driver. The mechanism drops a massive steel
hammer onto the beam from a height onto the beam. The 297 kg hammer is moving at 8.15 m/s at
point 2 in the figure, and stops at point 3 after driving the beam d = 6.28 cm deeper into the ground.
What is the magnitude of the force that the hammer exerts on the beam? (1 m = 100 cm)
For a large force, it is convenient to use units of kiloNewtons. (1 kN = 1000 N)

The ball falls to the ground near the base of the tree and the recoil of the tree is minimal. (a) What is the force on the tree? (b) The length of the sturdy section of the root is only 20 cm. Furthermore, the soil around the roots is loose and we can assume that an effective force is applied at the tip of the 20 cm length. What is the effective force exerted by the end of the tip of the root to keep the tree from toppling? Assume the tree will be uprooted rather than bend.
