Explanation:
We'll need two equations.
v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)
where v is the final velocity, v₀ is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, x is the final position, and x₀ is the initial position.
x = x₀ + ½ (v + v₀)t
where t is time.
Given:
v = 47.5 m/s
v₀ = 34.3 m/s
x - x₀ = 40100 m
Find: a and t
(47.5)² = (34.3)² + 2a(40100)
a = 0.0135 m/s²
40100 = ½ (47.5 + 34.3)t
t = 980 s
Work = force x distance
You can see time doesn’t matter (if we were talking about power, which is the RATE at which work is performed, that would be a different story).
W = 2 x 5 = 10 foot-pounds of work
Foot-pounds are gross units. Better to work in SI units when you can!
Answer: D
Explanation: :) Just took the quizz
F=ma
8480=26.5m
m=8480/26.5
m=320
The mass of the cart is 320kg.
