Question

Determine the force Santa needs to accelerate a 25 g model of the "helpful” guy in the blue

polo shirt to 200,000.00 m/s2? Assume that the acceleration is constant.

Answer 1

5,000 N

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Newton's Law's of motion ,

F = ma

Here, mass is given as 25 g and acceleration is 200,000.00 m/
`s^(2)`

Thus,

Converting mass into S.I unit we get m = 0.025 Kg.

Thus,

F = (0.025)(200,000) = 5,000 N.

Thus, santa needs to apply a force of 5,000 newtons in order to accelerate the 25 g model of the "helpful" guy in the blue polo shirt to 200,000.00 m/[tex]s^{2} acceleration.
