Answer:
(a) 91 kg (2 s.f.) (b) 22 m
Explanation:
Since it is stated that a constant horizontal force is applied to the block of ice, we know that the block of ice travels with a constant acceleration and but not with a constant velocity.
(a)
Subsequently,
*Note that the equations used above assume constant acceleration is being applied to the system. However, in the case of non-uniform motion, these equations will no longer be valid and in turn, calculus will be used to analyze such motions.
(b) To find the final velocity of the ice block at the end of the first 5 seconds,
According to Newton's First Law which states objects will remain at rest
or in uniform motion (moving at constant velocity) unless acted upon by
an external force. Hence, the block of ice by the end of the first 5
seconds, experiences no acceleration (a = 0) but travels with a constant
velocity of 4.4 .
Therefore, the ice block traveled 22 m in the next 5 seconds after the
worker stops pushing it.
