The time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>applied force, F = 600 N</em>
  • <em>mass of the truck, m = 1,500 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the truck, v = 2 m/s</em>

The force applied to the truck is determined by Newton's second law of motion; <em>which states that the force applied to an object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.</em>

F = ma

F = \frac{mv}{t} \\\\t = \frac{mv}{F} \\\\t = \frac{1500 \times 2}{600} \\\\t = 5 \ s

Thus, the time the truck must apply the given force to increase its speed to given value is 5 s.

What are the kinetic energy​
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

n physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion.[1] It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.

In classical mechanics, the kinetic energy of a non-rotating object of mass m traveling at a speed v is {\displaystyle {\begin{smallmatrix}{\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}\end{smallmatrix}}}{\begin{smallmatrix}{\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}\end{smallmatrix}}. In relativistic mechanics, this is a good approximation only when v is much less than the speed of light.

The standard unit of kinetic energy is the joule, while the imperial unit of kinetic energy is the foot-pound.

The four terrestrial planets are so called because they ?
velikii [3]
Well, you need no look further than the word "terrestrial" If you notice the beginning of the word you notice that it consists mostly of the word "terra" Terra by definition is just land. Due to the solid land of these 4 planets, they're called terrestrial planets, the other 4 aren't made of land but of gas which is why they aren't classified as terrestrial planets.
