Question

how does the total mass of each object increases the amount of force that is needed to get them moving at 5 m/s increase by about 200N demonstrate newtons 2nd law

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the rate of change of momentum with respect to time, going in the same direction as the force.

Let F = force, m = mass of object, v = velocity of object, mv = momentum.

F = d/dt(mv) = m(dv / dt) = ma; a = acceleration.

Let us assume that the object starts from rest to 5 m/s within 1 seconds, hence:

F = m(dv / dt)

200 N = m[(5 m/s - 0 m/s) / (1 s)]

200 = 5m

m = 40 kg
