<h3>
Answer: 130 newtons</h3>
===============================================================
Explanation:
We'll need the acceleration first.
- The initial speed (let's call that Vi) is 8.0 m/s
- The final speed (Vf) is 0 m/s since Sam comes to a complete stop at the end.
- This happens over a duration of t = 4.0 seconds
The acceleration is equal to the change in speed over change in time
a = acceleration
a = (change in speed)/(change in time)
a = (Vf - Vi)/(4 seconds)
a = (0 - 8.0)/4
a = -8/4
a = -2
The acceleration is -2 m/s^2, meaning that Sam slows down by 2 m/s every second. Negative accelerations are often associated with slowing down. The term "deceleration" can be used here.
Here's a further break down of Sam's speeds at the four points of interest
- At 0 seconds, he's going 8 m/s
- At the 1 second mark, he's slowing down to 8-2 = 6 m/s
- At the 2 second mark, he's now at 6-2 = 4 m/s
- At the 3 second mark, he's at 4-2 = 2 m/s
- Finally, at the 4 second mark, he's at 2-2 = 0 m/s
Next, we'll apply Newton's Second Law of motion
F = m*a
where,
- F = force applied
- m = mass
- a = acceleration
We just found the acceleration, and the mass is fairly easy as all we need to do is add Sam's mass with the sled's mass to get 60+5.0 = 65 kg
So the force applied must be:
F = m*a
F = 65*(-2)
F = -130 newtons
This force is negative to indicate it's pushing against the sled's momentum to slow Sam down.
The magnitude of this force is |F| = |-130| = 130 newtons

Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity on an object is independent of the mass of the object. This is so because, the acceleration due to gravity depends only on the radius of the earth and the mass of the earth.
As a result of this, all objects are accelerated to the same extent and should reach the ground at the same time when released from a height as long as other forces other than gravity are not at work.
