Answer:
20,850 N
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using second Newton's Law:
where
F is the force
m is the mass
a is the acceleration
In this problem, we have:
m = 70 kg is the mass
is the acceleration (which is negative, because it is a deceleration)
So, we can use the equation above to find the force:
and the negative sign simply means that the force is in the opposite direction to the motion.
Vx=cos60(4)
x-component of velocity
If you think about it, it makes a right triangle when you combine all the different types of forces together such as v, vx and vy. Then, you can use trigonometry and soh cah toa in order to figure out vx.
In order to solve this problem, we must first find out the value of each line on the number line. However, we can make this problem more simple by ignoring every interval except for the ones between 0 and 6. There are three total intervals in between 0 and 6 (including 6 and excluding 0). Therefore, we can do 6/2, and get an interval value of 2. This means that each line adds a value of 2. Since the car is only one line past zero, we only have to add one value of 2. Since 0 + 2 = 2, our final answer is C. 2.
Hope this helps!
