the force required to accelerate a body of mass 10gm from rest to 10m/s, in 10 seconds is
Answers
Answer :
Mass of body = 10g = 0.01kg
Initial velocity = zero
Final velocity = 10m/s
Tome interval = 10s
We have to find magnitude of applied force
★ As per newton's second law of motion force is defined as the rate of change of linear momentum.
- F = dp/dt
Force is a polar vector quantity as it has a point of application.
Momentum is measured as the product of mass and velocity.
- F = m (v - u) / t
F denotes force
m denotes mass
v denotes final velocity
u denotes initial velocity
t denotes time
By substituting the given values;
➝ F = m (v - u) / t
➝ F = 0.01 (10 - 0) / 10
➝ F = 0.01 × 10/10
➝ F = 0.01 N
____________________________________
Mass= 10 gram = 10 /1000 kg
time = 10sec
inital velocity= 0 m/sec
final velocity= 10m/sec

Force = ?

In order to find the force we need to find acceleration first.
According to Newton's second law of motion :
Force = 10 / 1000 x 1
