Problem 2RQ

A boxer can hit a heavy bag with great force. Why can’t he hit a piece of tissue paper in midair with the same amount of force?

Step-by-Step Solution:
Step 1 of 3

A boxer can hit a heavy bag with a great force, But in the tissue paper he can’t because he can’t exert any more force on the tissue paper can exert on him. The tissue paper has an insufficient inertia for a great force.
