Answer:

The force needed to slow down the car is, F = 67.5 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the car, m = 15 kg

The initial velocity of the car, V = 60 m/s

The final velocity of the car, v = 15 m/s

The time period of deceleration, t = 10 s

The difference in the momentum of the car is,

                                     mV - mv = 15(60 - 15)

                                                    = 675 kg m/s

The rate of change in momentum of the car gives the force acting on it.

                                    F = (mV - mu) / t

Substituting the values,

                                   F = 675 / 10

                                      = 67.5 N

Hence, the force needed to slow down the car is, F = 67.5 N

Which of Newton's Three Laws Applies? Law 1, 2, or 3?
frozen [14]

Answer:

1. Newton's first law

2.Newton's second law

3.Newton's third law

Explanation:

1. Newton's first law stated, In an inertial frame of reference, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force... this is base of the concept of inertia.

2. Newton's second law stated, In an inertial frame of reference, the vector sum of the forces F on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration a of the object: F = ma, or in easier words, F is directly proportional to a.

3. Newton's third law stated, When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body., In this case, the Normal Are opposite with gravititional force.

What is the impulse of a 3kg object accelerating from rest to 12m/s?
ale4655 [162]
To find the impulse you multiply the mass by the change in velocity (impulse=mass×Δvelocity). So in this case, 3 kg × 12 m/s ("12" because the object went from zero m/s to 12 m/s).

The answer is 36 kg m/s
