Answer:
a)-2m/s^2
b)27.2m/s
Explanation:
Hello! The first step to solve this problem is to find the mass of the block remembering that the definition of weight force is mass by gravity (g=9.8m / s ^ 2)
W=455N=weight
W=mg
W=455N=weight
The second step is to draw the free body diagram of the body (see attached image) and use Newton's second law that states that the sum of the forces is equal to mass by acceleration
for point b we use the equations of motion with constant acceleration to find the velocity
Where
Vf = final speed
Vo = Initial speed =0
A = acceleration =2m/s
X = displacement =6.8m
Solving
The speed of the ball is 101miles/hr.
A mile is a unit of length that is exactly 1,609.344 metres long. Similarly, 5,280 feet or 1,760 yards make up one mile. The mile is an imperial and common US measurement of distance.
We just have to deal with unit conversions.
One mile is 5280 feet, or 1 ft = 0.000189
The speed of the ball in miles per hour is
So, the speed of the ball in miles per hour is 101miles/hr.
