Answer:
8.0 N
Explanation:
Force: This can be defined as the mass of a body and its acceleration. The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N).
Mathematically, Fore is expressed as
F = ma ........................... equation 1
Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.
and
I = mΔv
Δv = I/m ............................ Equation 2
Where I = impulse, m = mass, Δv = change in velocity
Given: I = 6.0 Newton-seconds, m = 0.1 kilogram.
Substituting into equation 2
Δv = 6.0/0.1
Δv = 60 m/s.
But
a = Δv/t
where t = time = 0.75 seconds.
a = 60/0.75
a = 80 m/s²
Substitute the values of a and m into equation 1.
F = 0.1(80)
F = 8.0 N.
Thus the average force produced = 8.0 N
