Force , F = ma
F = m(v - u)/t
Where m = mass in kg, v= final velocity in m/s, u = initial velocity in m/s
t = time, Force is in Newton.
m= 1.2*10³ kg, u = 10 m/s, v = 20 m/s, t = 5s
F = 1.2*10³(20 - 10)/5
F = 2.4*10³ N = 2400 N
Answer:

Explanation:
using the law of the conservation of energy:


where K is the spring constant, x is the spring compression, N is the normal force of the block,
is the coefficiet of kinetic friction and d is the distance.
Also, by laws of newton, N is calculated by:
N = mg
N = 3.35 kg * 9.81 m/s
N = 32.8635
So, Replacing values on the first equation, we get:

solving for
:

Answer:
Potential energy of book = 7.5 J
Explanation:
Given:
Weight of book = 5 N
Height of shelf = 1.5 meter
Find:
Potential energy of book
Computation:
Weight = Mass x Acceleration of gravity
Mass x Acceleration of gravity = 5 N
Potential energy = Mass x Acceleration of gravity x Height
Potential energy of book = Mass x Acceleration of gravity x Height
We know that;
Mass x Acceleration of gravity = 5 N
So,
Potential energy of book = 5 x 1.5
Potential energy of book = 7.5 J
It is actually caused by the environment, so its false. :)
