Question:
The snowboarder is traveling with a velocity of 6 m/s as shown when he lands on the incline with no rebound. If the impact has a time duration of 0.1 s, determine his speed v along the incline just after impact and the total time-average normal force exerted by the incline on the snowboard during the impact. The combined mass of the athlete and his snowboard is 60 kg.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
