You are in a boat that is 1400 kg. The current is 1500N and is pushing you back. If you have an acceleration of 3 m/s^2 what is

Answer: The force of the engines is 5700N

Explanation:

By the second Newton's law, we have that:

F = m*a

Force equals mass times acceleration.

In this case, we have:

m = 1400kg

a = 3 m/s^2

And the force will be equal to the force of the engines, f, plus the force of  the current, -1500 N (because this is pushing you back, so it is in the opposite direction than f), then we have:

F = f - 1500N

Then we have the equation:

f - 1500N = 1400kg*3m/s^2 = 4200N

f - 1500N = 4200N

f = 4200N + 1500N = 5700N

The force of the engines is 5700N

Answer:

The Heavier Firefighter

Explanation:

Generally, more massive objects will have more intertia than less massive objects.  As such it takes more force to halt a more massive object if its moving at the same speed as a smaller object. This can also be thought of in the context of Newton's second law. The more force needed to accelerate an object means the more force the object will have.
