The rising concern among athletic trainers and health advocates (and parents) regarding concussions and multiple concussions among high school football players has prompted numerous studies of the effectiveness of protective head gear and the forces and accelerations experienced by players. One study suggested that there is a 50% chance of concussions for impacts rated at 75 g's of acceleration (i.e., 75 multiplied by 9.8 m/s/s). The average head impact in football results in 22 to 24 g's of acceleration ... but not all head impacts are equal.

If a player's head mass (with helmet) is 6.45 kg and considered to be a free body, then what net force would be required to produce an acceleration of 75 g's? 

  1. Force

    N

A rightward force of 17.0-N is exerted on a block to accelerate it across a friction-free surface. It accelerates at 4.59 m/s/s. If a second block of identical mass is dropped onto the first block, then what is the acceleration when the same 17.0-N force is applied to it. (Assume that there is no sliding between the first and second block.) 

  1. Acceleration

    m/s/s
