3. A force of 380 N is applied to a 38 kg object over a distance of 2.5 meters. What is the speedof the object after it accelerates?

Respuesta :

Given,

Force, F = 380 N

Mass, M = 38 kg

Distance, d = 2.5 m

The work done on the body is equal to the final kinetic energy.

[tex]F\times d=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Put the given values in the formula,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 380\text{ N}\times2.5\text{ m = }\frac{1}{2}\times38kg\times v^2 \\ v^2=\frac{950\times2}{38} \\ v^2=50 \\ v=\sqrt[]{50} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, the speed of the object after it accelerates is

[tex]v=7.07\text{ m/s}[/tex]
