When we say that an object wants to maintain its state of motion, we’re talking about inertia. Which term determines the quantit

Inertia is determined by the mass of the object. greater the mass an object has, greater will be its inertia. smaller the mass an object has, smaller will be its inertia. Greater mass enables an object to resist change in its state of motion or rest while on the other hand smaller mass object can be easily made to change its state of motion or rest.

How long must a tow truck apply a force of 600 N to increase the speed of a 1,500 kg car at rest to 2 m/s?
slega [8]

The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force, F = 600 N</em>
  • <em>mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s</em>

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; <em>which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.</em>

F = ma

F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s

Thus, the time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.
