A box, initially at rest, has 36.7 N of force exerted on it for 2.81 s. If the box has a mass of 7.41 kg, what was its velocity

at this time?

Answer:

13.91 m/s

Explanation:

First we need to find the acceleration:

Acceleration = Force/mass

Acceleration = 36.7N/7.41 kg

Acceleration = 4.95 m/s² (rounded to two decimal places)

Then we find the velocity:

Velocity = Acceleration * Time

Velocity = 4.95 m/s² * 2.81 s

Velocity = 13.91 m/s (rounded to two decimal places)

Hi there!

We can begin by calculating the acceleration of the box using Newton's Second Law:

\large\boxed{\Sigma F = ma}

∑F = Net force (N)

m = mass (kg)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

Rearrange to solve for acceleration:

\frac{\Sigma F}{m} = a\\\\\frac{36.7}{7.41} = 4.95 m/s^2

Now, we can use the kinematic equation:

v_f = v_0 + at

vf = Final velocity (? m/s)

v0 = initial velocity (0 m/s, from rest)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

t = time (s)

Plug in the values:

v_f = 0 + 4.95(2.81)\\\\v_f = \boxed{13.91 m/s}

Speed is velocity in a given direction<br> O True<br> O False
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Velocity = speed with direction.

Think of speed and direction like rockets and missiles. Rockets are not smart. Missiles are smart. Rockets go in one direction. Missiles can track their targets, they have a specific destination, a specific direction.

Velocity is often used in physics, because its almost useless to know how fast an object is going if you don't know which direction it is going.

Think of it like this. If the Weather man told you a hurricane was traveling at 30 miles an hour, but didn't tell you which direction it was going, you would have no idea where to run, or if it was going to hit you at all. However, if he told you it was going 30 miles an hour to the North, and you were West of it, you would be fine, and wouldn't have to worry.

A speeding car collides with an unlucky bug flying across the road. Which explains why the impact doesn’t equally damage the car
velikii [3]
The bug was a lot smaller than the car, that's for sure. The car is bigger and sturdier, while the bug is smaller and frail. The bug is so frail, that rather that putting a dent in the car, it splatters all over the car. The bug is very damaged (obviously), while the car just needs a good wash.
