A 1.5-kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters per second. It is brought to rest by a constant net force in 0.30 second. What

is the magnitude of the net force?

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.

The cart's acceleration is

                               (0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)

                           = ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²)  =  -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .

Newton's second law of motion says

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

For this cart:      Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)

                                       = ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)

<span>                                       =      </span>- 10 newtons .

<span>The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction </span>
<span>in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration, </span>
<span>and it eventually stops the cart.</span>

Katarina [22]

A rocket ship is accelerated by the SRB and the main engines for 2.0 minutes and the main engines for 8.5 minutes after the launch. The acceleration of the ship during the first 2.0 minutes is 11 m/s² (D).

A rocket ship has several engines and thrusters. We can divide its initial movement into 2 parts:

  • From t = 0 min to t = 2.0 min, the SRB and the main engines act together and the speed goes from 0 m/s (rest) to 1341 m/s.
  • From t = 2.0 min to t = 8.5 min, the main engines alone accelerate the ship form 1341 m/s to 7600 m/s.

We want to know the acceleration in the first part (first 2.0 minutes). We need to consider that:

  • The speed increases from 0 m/s to 1341 m/s.
  • The time elpased is 2.0 min.
  • 1 min = 60 s.

The acceleration of the ship during the first 2.0 minutes is:

a = \frac{\Delta v }{t} ) \frac{(1341m/s-0m/s)}{2.0min} \times \frac{1min}{60s}  = 11 m/s^{2}

A rocket ship is accelerated by the SRB and the main engines for 2.0 minutes and the main engines for 8.5 minutes after the launch. The acceleration of the ship during the first 2.0 minutes is 11 m/s² (D).
