Question

If a net force of 25 N is exerted over a distance of 4 m to the right on a 2 kg mass initially at rest and moves it, what is

the final velocity of the object?
v=_
m/s
20

Answer 1

10 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is mass times acceleration:

F = ma

25 N = (2 kg) a

a = 12.5 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

Δx = 4 m

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (12.5 m/s²) (4 m)

v = 10 m/s
