An object of mass 100 kg is accelerated uniformly from avelocity of 5 m /s to 8 m /s in 6 s. Calculate the initial and finalmomentum of the object. Also, find the magnitude of the forceexerted on the object. |

Answer» Initial velocity of the object (u) = 5 m/s Final velocity of the object (v) = 8 m/s Mass of the object (m) = 100 kg Time take by the object to accelerate (t) = 6 s Initial momentum = mu = 100 × 5 ⇒ mu = 500 kg m/s Final momentum = mv = 100 × 8 ⇒ mv = 800 kg m/s Let us calculate the Force exerted on the object (F) F = (mv – mu) / t F = (800 – 500)/6 F = 300 / 6 F = 50 N Initial momentum of the object is 500 kg m sˆ1. Final momentum of the object is 800 kg m sˆ1. Force exerted on the object is 50 N. please mark me brain mark LIST |
