Question

an object of mass 100kg is accelerated uniformly from a velocity of 5ms-1 to​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Initial velocity of the object (u) = 5 m/s

Final velocity of the object (v) = 8 m/s

Mass of the object (m) = 100 kg

Time take by the object to accelerate (t) = 6 s

Initial momentum = mu = 100 × 5

⇒ mu = 500 kg m/s

Final momentum = mv = 100 × 8

⇒ mv = 800 kg m/s

Let us calculate the Force exerted on the object (F)

F = (mv – mu) / t

F = (800 – 500)/6

F = 300 / 6

F = 50 N

Initial momentum of the object is 500 kg m sˆ1.

Final momentum of the object is 800 kg m sˆ1.

Force exerted on the object is 50 N.

Hope it helps ☺☺

Answer 2

Answer:

50N

Explanation:

ANSWER

Mass of object, m=100kg; initial velocity, u=5ms

−1

; final velocity, v=8ms

−1

; time, t=6s

Initial momentum =mu=100×5=500Ns

Final momentum =mv=100×8=800Ns

Force exerted on the object

F=

t

mv−mu

=

6

800−500

=

6

300

=50N
