Answer 2

A soccer ball is traveling downfield with a force of 1.2kN and strikes another soccer ball that is stationary. Which of the following describes the result of the collision?

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To accurately describe the result of the collision, additional information is needed, such as the masses of the soccer balls and the nature of the collision (e.g., elastic or inelastic). With only the force provided, it is not possible to determine the outcome of the collision. Force alone does not provide enough information about the motion or behavior of the objects involved in the collision.
