Answer:

  A. 0.806 kN

  B. 0.303 kN

Explanation:

A.

The kinetic energy of the ball is ...

  KE = 1/2mv² = 1/2(0.206 kg)(18 m/s)² = 33.372 J

The work required to reduce this to zero over a distance of 4.14 cm is ...

  W = Fd

  F = W/d = (33.372 J)/(0.0414 m) = 0.806 kN

__

B.

When the distance is 11 cm, the force is ...

  F = (33.372 J)/(0.11 m) = 0.303 kN
