What is the momentum of a 100 kg football player running at a speed of 4 meters per second?

The formula is...momentum=velocity x massSo...momentum= 4m/s x 100kgmomentum= 400 kg m/s


Why is it harder to stop a heavy football player than a lighter football player?

A heavy football player is harder to stop because it has a greater momentum. In physics, momentum is equal to the mass of an object times its velocity. If a 50 kilogram kid and a 70 kilogram man were running at the same speed, the man would be harder to stop because he would have a greater momentum.


How does a football player increase their momentum momentum?

Can you carry a football player backwards for loss?

no because once the football player has lost all of his forward momentum the refree will mark the ball down there.


How does momentum relate to rugby?

momentum makes the player harder to slow down and stop, so the player will be able to gain more yards when running with the ball and also help them break tackles. the faster the player is running the more momentum he is carrying. You may hear the term "momentum took him over the line" this means that he has not forced himself over the line through double movement, the momentum he was carrying carried him over.


Why Is it harder to stop a heavy football player rushing the ball than it is to stop a lighter one?

Because the heavier football player has a much higher momentum which is product of mass and velocity. To cancel the momentum of a heavier football player one must achieve the same momentum at impact. A lighter player can only do that by increasing his velocity.Momentum = mass x velocityIf a football player weighed 100 Kg and was traveling at 5 m/s (11 miles per hour). A 50 Kg person would have to impact the heavier football player at a speed of 10 m/s (22 miles per hour) to cancel the inertia of the heavier football player.As the heavier football player goes faster it becomes increasingly difficult to stop them. You can also take several lighter players by combining their mass to stop the forward momentum of the heavier football player.
