What average net force is required to stop a 1950 kg car in 10.5 s if it’s initially traveling at 28m/s
1 answer:
Answer:
<em>An average net force of 5200 N is needed to stop the car</em>
Explanation:
<u>Cinematics and Dynamics</u>
Cinematics describes the variables involved in the movement without dealing with its causes. There are four main concepts in cinematics: Velocity (or its scalar equivalent, the speed), acceleration, time, and displacement (or the scalar equivalent, distance).
The acceleration can be calculated by:
The initial speed is vo=28 m/s, it stops (vf=0) in t=10.5 seconds, thus the acceleration is:
The acceleration is negative because the car loses speed.
Knowing the mass of the car m=1950 Kg, we can calculate the net force required to stop the car by using the formula:
F = m.a =1950*2.67
F = 5200 N
An average net force of 5200 N is needed to stop the car

Answer:
a) Frope= 71.7 N
b) Frope=6.7 N
Explanation:
In the figure the skier is simulated as an object, "a box".
a) At constant velocity we can say that the object is in equilibrium, so we apply the Newton's first law:
∑F=0
Frope=w*sen6.8°
Frope=71.71N
Take into account that w is the weight that is calculated as mass per gravitiy constant:
w=m*g
b) In this case the system has an acceleration of 0.109m/s2. Then, we apply Newton's second law of motion:
F=m*a
F=61.8Kg*0.109m/s2
Frope=6.73N
