A force of 20N changes the position of a body. If mass of the body is 2kg, find the acceleration produced in the body.2. A ball

shepuryov [24]

Explanation:

Hello there!!!

You just need to use simple formula for force and momentum, 

F= m.a

and momentum (p)= m.v

where m= mass

v= velocity.

a= acceleration .

And the solutions are in pictures. 

Hope it helps..

An inattentive driver is traveling 18.0 m/s when he notices a red light ahead. his car is capable of decelerating at a rate of 3

ryzh [129]

Speed of the car given initially

v = 18 m/s

deceleration of the car after applying brakes will be

a = 3.35 m/s^2

Reaction time of the driver = 0.200 s

Now when he see the red light distance covered by the till he start pressing the brakes

$d_1 = v* t$

$d_1 = 18* 0.200 = 3.6 m$

Now after applying brakes the distance covered by the car before it stops is given by kinematics equation

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s$

here

vi = 18 m/s

vf = 0

a = - 3.35

so now we will have

$0^2 - 18^2 = 2*(-3.35)(s)$

$s = 48.35 m$

So total distance after which car will stop is

$d = d_1 + d_2$

$d = 48.35 + 3.6 = 51.95 m$

So car will not stop before the intersection as it is at distance 20 m
