Answer:

Force of 6250N is required to slow down the body to zero.

Explanation:

Speed(V)=20m/s

Initial speed (u) =0m/s

Mass(M)=1000kg

Time(t)=3.2seconds

Using first equation of motion to find the acceleration of the body:

V=U + at

20m/s=0 + a*3.2s

Therefore, a=(20m/s)/3.2s

a=6.25m/s^2

To find the force required to stop the body or get it down to zero:

Force(F)=mass x acceleration

F=(1000kg)*(6.25m/s^2)

F=6250N.

Therefore a force of 6250N is required to slow it down.

The air also contained a small amount of argon.
andriy [413]

Answer:

When argon changes from a gas to a liquid, the forces between the molecules become stronger so the particles become closer together and come into come into contact more often. The particles move at a less faster rate as the have less kinetic energy due to decrease in temperature. When argon changes from a liquid to a solid, the forces become even stronger so the particles are arranged in fixed positions and vibrate around a fixed point as they cannot move past each other

A hockey puck is sliding at a constant rate of 2m/s on a frictionless surface. How fast will the puck be moving after 10 sec
AnnyKZ [126]
2m/s because the hockey puck is traveling at a constant speed ( acceleration is 0 ). Unless something acts on the hockey puck it will travel 2 m/s forever.
