A 7-kg bowling ball moving at 4 m/s strikes a 1 kg bowling pin. If the ball slows to 2 m/s in 0.05 s, how much force does it exert on the pin? Please, show your work.

280 N

Explanation:

acceleration = v2-v1 / time taken = (2-4 )/ 0.05 = -40 m/s^2  ( neg sign indicates slowing down )

force exerted = ma = 7 kg x -40 m/s^2 = - 280 N ( neg sign means opposite direction of initial velocity )

since the 7 kg ball is slowing down, the  direction of force will be opposite of the initial velocity , and it will be 280 N

depends on what you mean by "group." for order, it would be coleoptera (beetles). for class, it would be insecta (insects). for phylum, it would be the arthropoda (animals with jointed exoskeletons).
