If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the object's velocity is a linear function of time.

The equation v = v_i + at gives its velocity v as a function of time, where a is its constant acceleration. What if velocity is instead a linear function of position? Assume that as a particular object moves through a resistive medium, its speed decreases as described by the equation v = v_i - kx, where k is a constant coefficient and x is the position of the object. Find the law describing the total force acting on this object. (Enter an expression for the magnitude of the total force. Use the following as necessary: m, k, and v.)

Answer:

F=mkv

Explanation:

Given that

v = v_i - kx

We know that acceleration a given as

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

v = v_i - kx

\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{dv_i}{dt}-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}

\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}

We know that

F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}

F=-mk\dfrac{dx}{dt}

F=-mkv

So the magnitude of force F

F=mkv

Answer:

Answer:196 Joules

Explanation:

Hello

Note:  I think the text in parentheses corresponds to another exercise, or this is incomplete, I will solve it with the first part of the problem

the work  is the product of a force applied to a body and the displacement of the body in the direction of this force

assuming that the force goes in the same direction of the displacement, that is upwards

W=F*D (work, force,displacement)

the force necessary to move the object will be

F=mg(mass *gravity)\\F=4kgm*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }\\ F=39.2 Newtons\\replace\\\\W=39.2 N*5m\\W=196\ Joules

Answer:196 Joules

I hope it helps

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

According to the second Newton's Law,

<em>✔ We have : F = m x a ⇔ m = F/a </em>

  • m = 3000/15
  • m = 200 kg

The mass of the object is therefore 200 kg.
