a mass of 1000kg having a speed of 10m/s is brought to rest over a distance of 100m find the retardation and retarding force
Answers
please mark as brainliest.
The mass of the object [m] = 1000 kg.
The initial velocity of the object [ u] = 10 m/s
The final velocity of the object [v] = 0
The stopping distance is given as [s] = 100 m.
Let a is the retardation of the object.
From equation of kinematics we know that-
Now, we have to calculate the retarding force.
From Newton's second law we know that-
F = ma [F stands for force]
= 1000 × [-0.5] N
= -500 N
The negative sign is due to the fact that force is opposite to the displacement.
