When the force acting on the body equal to acceleration?
topjm [15]

Answer:

Acceleration and velocity Newton's second law says that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Explanation:

We know ,

  • v = u + at
  • u = v - at
  • u = 500 - 2*50
  • u = 400 m/s

0.45 kg soccer ball changes its velocity by 20.0 m/s due to a force applied to it in 0.10 seconds. What force was necessary for
Paladinen [302]

Assuming the accleration applied was constant, we have

v=v_0+at\implies v_0+20.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=v_0+a(0.10\,\mathrm s)

\implies20.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}=a(0.10\,\mathrm s)

\implies a=200\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

Then the force applied to the ball is given by

F=ma=(0.45\,\mathrm{kg})\left(200\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)

\implies F=90\,\dfrac{\mathrm{kg}\,\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}=90.\,\mathrm N
