6. A sled traveling at a speed of 3.0 m/s slows to a stop 4.0 m from the point where
its passenger rolled off. What is the magnitude of the horizontal net force that
slows the 110 N sled? (Assume ag = 10m/s2)

Answer:

-12.38 N

Explanation:

This question requires you to first find the acceleration then apply Newton's 2nd law of motion to find the force.

To find deceleration use the formula;

v²= u²+2ad ---where

v= final speed = 0 m/s

u= initial speed = 3.0 m/s

a= acceleration { in this case , deceleration} = ?

d= distance from the point where its passenger rolled off= 4.0 m

therefore ;

[tex]a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2d}[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{0^2-3^2}{2*4} =\frac{-9}{8} m/s^2[/tex]

Mass of the sled is calculated from its weight force.

Weight force = mg

mass of sled = weight force / g  where g= 10 m/s²

mass of sled = 110/10 = 11kg

The magnitude of horizontal net force will be : F= ma  where ;

m= mass of sled = 11 kg

a= deceleration = -9/8 m/s²

F = 11 * -9/8 = -12.38 N

Force is acting on the opposite direction of the initial motion of the sled.

The magnitude of the horizontal net force acting on the sled is 12.375 N.

Given data:

The initial speed of sled is, u = 3.0 m/s.

The final speed of sled is, v = 0 m/s.

The distance covered before stopping is, s = 4.0 m.

The weight of sled is, W = 110 N.

Using the Newton's second law, the net horizontal force acting on the sled is given as,

F = ma

here,

m is the mass of sled.

a is the acceleration of sled.

Mass is calculated from the weight as,

W = mg

110 = m (10)

m = 11 kg.

Now, using the second kinematic equation of motion to obtain the acceleration of sled as,

[tex]v^{2}=u^{2}+2(-a)s\\\\0^{2}=3^{2}+2(-a)4\\\\8a=9\\\\a=1.125 \;\rm m/s^{2}[/tex]

Then the magnitude of net horizontal force is,

[tex]F = ma\\\\F = 11 \times 1.125\\\\F = 12.375\;\rm N[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the horizontal net force is 12.375 N.
