To solve this problem we will use the kinematic formula for the final velocity.

The final speed is 0 at the moment the player stops.
The time until it stops is 1.3 s
The initial speed is 200 feet / s Note (check the speed units in the problem statement, 200ft / s is very much and 200ft / h is very small)
Then, we clear the formula.

Because the player is slowing down, the acceleration goes in the opposite direction to the player's movement, and that is why it is negative.
To answer part b) we use the following formula.

A. because as the merry-go-round spins the child accelerates towards the center of the merry-go-round at a uniform rate.
<u>Answer:</u> The weight of the object is 29.4 N
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the weight of the object, we use the equation:

where,
m = mass of the object = 3 kg
g = acceleration due to gravity = 
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the weight of the object is 29.4 N
