We will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law. At the same time we will convert everything to the system of international units.

m = 3500lb = 1587.57kg

The values of the velocities are,

\text{Initial Velocity} = V_i = 0

\text{Final Velocity} = V_f = 60mph = 26.822m/s

We know that the acceleration is equivalent to the change of the speed in a certain time therefore

a = \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

a = \frac{26.822-0}{5}

a = 5.36m/s^2

Now applying the Newton's second law we have,

F= ma

F = (1587.57)(5.36)

F = 8516.36N

Therefore the approximate magnitude is 8516.36N

Draw Graph for the derivation of three equations of Motion​
Over [174]

Answer:

Hey mate I shall not tell you the answer I shall explain it to you after this if still you can't understand then say

Explanation:

Derive v = u + at by Graphical Method. Consider the velocity – time graph of a body shown in the below Figure

Derive s = ut + (1/2) at2 by Graphical Method. Velocity so time graph to derive the equations of motion.

Derive v2 = u2 + 2as by Graphical Method. Velocity–Time graph to derive the equations of motion.

I hope you understand now

enjoy your day

What conversion takes place in a generator?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

B. An electric current into a magnetic field

Explanation:

The generation of electrical power requires relative motion between a magnetic field and a conductor. In a generator, mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy. The electricity produced by most generators is in the form of alternating current.
