Rate of change of momentum = impact force
(m*v-m*u)/t = F
4000*20/t = 80000 (note: v is zero as it stopped)
<span>soo, t = 1 sec</span>
It moved from 0 cm to 4 cm at a constant speed of 1 cm/s.
Answer:
6.75m/s
Explanation:
using the second equation of motion, the time is calculated.
and with the formula a= (v - u)/t
where a is acceleration but in this case it's deceleration (and should be negated as you solve it ) .
v is final velocity
u is initial velocity
t is time taken
