How long will it take a force of 10N to stop a mass of 2.5kg which is moving at 20 m/s?

Answer»

Mass of the body = 2.5kg 

Initial velocity, u = 20 m/s 

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s 

Force, F = 10N 

Acceleration, a = F/m = 10/2.5 = 4 m/s2

Since, v < u, negative sign is used = -4 m/s

Time, t = (v-u)/a = 5s
