A force acts for 0.2sec on an object having mass 1.4kg initially at rest. The force stops to act but the object moves through 4m in the next 2sec. Find the magnitude of the force?
Given,
Average velocity, v=distancetime=42=2ms−1
Force = rate of change of momentum
F=mvavgtime=1.4×20.2=14N
Hence, force is 14N
