Answer:
<em>The distance is now 4d</em>
Explanation:
<u>Mechanical Force</u>
According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:
F = m.a
Where a is the acceleration of the object.
The acceleration can be calculated by solving for a:
Once we know the acceleration, we can calculate the distance traveled by the block as follows:
If the block starts from rest, vo=0:
Substituting the value of the acceleration:
Simplifying:
When a force F'=4F is applied and assuming the mass is the same, the new acceleration is:
And the distance is now:
Dividing d'/d:
Simplifying:
Thus:
d' = 4d
The distance is now 4d
