A mass of 8kg is pulled by a force of 20N along a smooth floor. Calculate the
a).acceleration
b).velocity after 4s
c).distance moved in 4s
d).workdone by the force

Respuesta :

The acceleration is 2.5 m/s², the velocity after 4 seconds is 10 m/s,the distance after 4 seconds is 20 m, and the work done by the force would be 400 J

What is work done?

The total amount of energy transferred when a force is applied to move an object through some distance

The work done is the multiplication of applied force with displacement.

Work Done = Force * Displacement

As given in the problem A mass of 8kg is pulled by a force of 20N along a smooth floor

For calculating acceleration

F = ma

20 = 8a

a = 2.5 m/s²

For calculating velocity

v= u + at

v = 0 + 2.5×4

v = 10 m/s

For calculating distance

v² - u² = 2×a×s

10² - 0²= 2×2.5×S

s = 100/5

s = 20 m

For calculating work done by the force

work done = F ×s

                  = 20 ×20

                  = 400 J

Hence, the acceleration is 2.5 m/s², the velocity after 4 seconds is 10 m/s, the distance after 4 seconds is 20 m, and the work done by the force would be 400 J
