A 2.0-kilogram body is initially traveling at a velocity of 40. meters per second east.
If a constant force of 10. newtons due east is applied to the body for 5.0 seconds, the final speed of the body is ...?
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.
Change in momentum = force * time = 10 * 5.0 = 50 kg-m/s Change in velocity = change in momentum/mass = 50/2.0 = 25 m/s towards east Final velocity = initial velocity + change in velocity = 40 + 25 = 65 m/s towards east Final speed = magnitude of final velocity = 65 m/s Ans: 65 m/s
