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>

Where would you find the least dense water? at 1,000 m in the Antarctic Ocean ,at 200 m in the Arctic Ocean, at the surface of t
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

At the surface of the Atlantic Ocean

Explanation:

The atlantic ocean is a worm ocean and the surface has the least dense water. This is because the denser layer of water sinks, while the least dense floats.

The Atlantic Ocean stands out in the choices with warmer temperatures at depths. This results from the different flow dynamics in the semi-enclosed Mediterranean Sea.
