The mass of the cart is 0.167 kg
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using Newton's second law, which states that the net force applied to an object is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:
where
F is the net force acting on an object
m is its mass
a is its acceleration
For the cart in this problem, we have
F = 0.5 N is the net force applied
is the acceleration
Substituting, we find the mass:

Answer:
The value of tension on the cable T = 1065.6 N
Explanation:
Mass = 888 kg
Initial velocity ( u )= 0.8
Final velocity ( V ) = 0
Distance traveled before come to rest = 0.2667 m
Now use third law of motion =
- 2 a s
Put all the values in above formula we get,
⇒ 0 = - 2 × a ×0.2667
⇒ a = 1.2
This is the deceleration of the box.
Tension in the cable is given by T = F = m × a
Put all the values in above formula we get,
T = 888 × 1.2
T = 1065.6 N
This is the value of tension on the cable.
