Answer:
The answer to your question is: F = 0.4375 N. The force will be 16 times lower than with the first conditions.
Explanation:
Data
F = 7 N
F = ? if the masses is quartered
Formula
Process
Normal conditions F = Km₁m₂/r² = 7
When masses quartered F = K(m₁/4)(m₂/4)/r² = ?
F = K(m₁m₂/16)/r²
F = K(m₁m₂/16r² = 7/16 = 0.4375 N
The force required to slow the truck was -5020 N
Explanation:
First of all, we find the acceleration of the truck, which is given by
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time
For the truck in this problem,
v = 11.5 m/s
u = 21.9 m/s
t = 2.88 s
So the acceleration is
where the negative sign means that this is a deceleration.
Now we can find the force exerted on the truck, which is given by Newton's second law:
where
m = 1390 kg is the mass of the truck
is the acceleration
And substituting,
So the closest answer among the option is -5020 N.
