Hi there!
Recall Newton's Second Law:
∑F = Net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)
We are already given the mass and acceleration, so we can plug these values into the equation:
∑F = 1600 · 4.5 = 7200 N
The object is at rest. This is because time is going by and there’s no distance being added
You completed 100.000 m in 11.800 second
you aced out the other runner by 0.001 seconds
time taken by other runner to finish = 11.800 + 0.001 = 11.801s
speed of other runner = 100/11.801 m/s
distance covered by him in 11.8 s = 100/11.801 × 11.8 = 99.992 m
you won by = 100 - 99.992 = 0.008 meter
The answer for this question should be TRUE
You always multiply the mass (kg) by the velocity at which the object is travelling (m/s) to get the momentum (kg m/s) thus: 30 × 5 = 150 kg m/s
