A constant retarding force of 50N is applied to a body of mass 20kg moving with the speed of 15m/s. How long does the body take to stop?
Ans1 Given
F=50N
M=20kg
u=15m/s
v=0
As F=ma
a=50/20=2.5m/s^2
Since the retarding is negativd so -2.5 m/s^2
Time=
v=u+at
=0-15/-2.5=6s
Ans2 F=ma
50=20×0-15/t
50=20×-15/t
50/20×-15=1/t
-6 s=t
Why the 2 is incorrect ?
Complete the following table:
(A)
u (m/s)
a (m/s2)
t (sec)
v = u + at (m/s)
