First, determine the acceleration you subject the sled to. You have a mass of 15 kg being subjected to a force of 180 N, so
180 N / 15 kg = 180 (kg m)/s^2 / 15 kg = 12 m/s^2
Now determine how long you pushed it. For constant acceleration the equation is
d = 0.5 A T^2
Substitute the known values getting,
2.5 m = 0.5 12 m/s^2 T^2
2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2
Solve for T
2.5 m = 6 m/s^2 T^2
0.41667 s^2 = T^2
0.645497224 s = T
Now to get the velocity, multiply the time by the acceleration, giving
0.645497224 s * 12 m/s^2 = 7.745966692 m/s
After rounding to 2 significant figures, you get 7.7 m/s</span>
electromagnet
When a electric current is passed through an insulated wire that is coiled around an iron core, like a nail, an electromagnet is created.
All of the above as it states that "<span>a particle attracts every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers"</span>
