ully is riding a snowmobile on a flat, snow-covered surface with a constant velocity of 10 meters/second. The total mass of the snowmobile, including Sully, is 280 kilograms. If Sully accelerates to a velocity of 16 meters/second over 10 seconds, what’s the force exerted by the snowmobile to accelerate? Use F = ma, where .

Respuesta :

Answer:

168 Newtons.

Explanation:

The computation of the force exerted is shown below:

Since the sully accelerated for a velocity of 16 m/s over 10 seconds

So the excess would be

= 16 - 10

= 6

And, the ratio of change in velocity is

[tex]= \frac{6}{10}[/tex]

= 0.6 m/s

Now as we know that

[tex]f = m\times a\\\\ = 280\ kg \times 0.6[/tex]

= 168 Newtons

Hence, the force exerted is 168 newtons

We simply applied the above formula so that the force could arrive
