Answer:
a. Acceleration, a = 1.47 * 10^{-9} m/s²
b. Mass = 4.57 * 10^{10} kilograms
c. Force = 67.12 Newton
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Distance = 93 cm to meters = 93/100 = 0.93 meters
Weight = 67 N
Time = 9.89 hours to seconds = 35604 seconds
Initial velocity = 0 m/s (since it's starting from rest)
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s
a. To find the acceleration, we would use the second equation of motion;
[tex] S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^{2} [/tex]
Where;
S is the distance covered or displacement of an object.
u is the initial velocity.
a is the acceleration.
t is the time.
Substituting the values into the equation, we have;
[tex] 0.93 = 0*35604 + \frac{1}{2} * a*35604^{2} [/tex]
[tex] 0.93 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} * 1267644816a [/tex]
[tex] 0.93 = 633822408a [/tex]
[tex] Acceleration, a = \frac{0.93}{633822408} [/tex]
Acceleration, a = 1.47 * 10^{-9} m/s²
b. To find the mass
Weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity
67 = mass * 1.47 * 10^{-9}
[tex] Acceleration, a = \frac{67}{1.47 * 10^{-9}} [/tex]
Mass = 4.57 * 10^{10} kilograms
c. To find the force;
Force = mass * acceleration
Force = 4.57 * 10^{10} * 1.47 * 10^{-9}
Force = 67.12 Newton
