Answer

The maximum force on the ball from the player's foot is $~~4500~N$

Work Step by Step

$F(t) = (6.0\times 10^6)t-(2.0\times 10^9)t^2$ $F'(t) = (6.0\times 10^6)-(4.0\times 10^9)t$ To find the time $t$ when the maximum force occurs, we can let $F'(t) = 0$: $F'(t) = 0$ $(6.0\times 10^6)-(4.0\times 10^9)t = 0$ $(6.0\times 10^6)=(4.0\times 10^9)t $ $t = \frac{6.0\times 10^6}{4.0\times 10^9}$ $t = 1.5\times 10^{-3}~s$ We can find the maximum force: $F_{max} = (6.0\times 10^6)(1.5\times 10^{-3})-(2.0\times 10^9)(1.5\times 10^{-3})^2$ $F_{max} = (9000~N)-(4500~N)$ $F_{max} = 4500~N$ The maximum force on the ball from the player's foot is $~~4500~N$
