Answer: 20m/s.
Explanation:
Remember the second Newton's law:
F = a*m
This is:
The net force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object times the acceleration of the object.
In this case, we have a force of 5N pushing the object to the right.
We also have a force of 5N pushing the object to the left.
These forces act on opposite directions.
Then the net force will be equal to the difference of these forces, this is:
F = 5N - 5N = 0N
Then the net force is 0N, then we have:
0N = m*a
0N/m = 0m/s^2 = a
This means that the acceleration of the object is 0, then the velocity of the object does not change.
This means that if the object was moving at a constant velocity of 20m/s, the velocity of the object will still be equal to 20m/s. (because the net force acting on the object is zero)
The initial speed of the sled at the given height is 4.85 m/s.
<h3>Initial speed of the sled</h3>
Apply the principle of conservation of energy;
K.E = P.E
¹/₂mv² = mgh
v² = 2gh
v = √2gh
where;
- h is the vertical height reached
- g is acceleration due to gravity
v = √(2 x 9.8 x 1.2)
v = 4.85 m/s
Thus, the initial speed of the sled at the given height is 4.85 m/s.
