Answer:
The value is [tex]s =197.88 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The impulse is [tex]I = 950 \ N\cdot s[/tex]
The mass is [tex]m = 12 \ kg[/tex]
The time t = 5 s
Generally impulse is mathematically represented as
[tex]I = F * t[/tex]
=> [tex]F = \frac{I}{t}[/tex]
=> [tex]F = \frac{950 }{ 5 }[/tex]
=> [tex]F = 190 \ N[/tex]
Generally force is mathematically represented as
[tex]F = m * a[/tex]
=> [tex]a = \frac{F }{ m }[/tex]
=> [tex]a = \frac{190 }{ 12 }[/tex]
=> [tex]a = 15.83 \ m/s^2[/tex]
Generally from kinematic equation , the distance covered is
[tex]s = ut + \frac{1}{2} * at^2[/tex]
Here u is the initial velocity of the cart and the value is [tex]u = m/s[/tex]
=> [tex]s = 0 * 5 + \frac{1}{2} * 15.83 * 5^2[/tex]
=> [tex]s =197.88 \ m[/tex]
