Objectives:
At the end of the lesson the students should be able to:
Given: Solution:
m = 6 kg a=
F = 36.6 N a=
Find: Final answer: a =
a
Formula:
a=
Example #2:
What force is required on a 5,800 kg object if it slows down from 55 m/s
to 45 m/s in 14 s?
Given: where,
m = 5,800 kg F/f force
vi = 55 m/s a acceleration
vf = 45 m/s m mass
t = 14 s vi initial velocity
Find: F vf final velocity
Formulas: F = ma t time
a = or
Solution:
F = ma
F = 5,800 kg ()
F = -4,142.86 N
Interpretation:
The object is decreasing or slowing down.
Example #3:
Neglecting air friction, what force is required to accelerate an
automobile, weighing 40,500 N from 40 km/h to 55 km/h in 8 s?
Given: where,
Fw = 40,500 N Fw force weight
vi = 40 km/h vi initial velocity
vf = 55 km/h vf final velocity
t =8s t time
Find: F g gravity (acceleration due to gravity)
Formulas: F = ()()
Solution:
F= ()()
F=
(convert velocity to m/s)
vi =
vf =
F=
F = 2,154.15 N
This law of Newton (Law of
Acceleration) applies to real life, being
one of the laws of physics that impacts
most in our daily lives
