In a football game, a \(95-\mathrm{kg}\) player carrying the ball can run the \(50-\mathrm{m}\) dash in \(5.5 \mathrm{~s}\). Two opponents are available to stop him with a head-on tackle. One opponent has an inertia of \(110 \mathrm{~kg}\) and a \(50-\mathrm{m}\) time of \(6.6 \mathrm{~s}\); the other has an inertia of \(90 \mathrm{~kg}\) and a \(50-\mathrm{m}\) time of \(5.1 \mathrm{~s}\).
