Determine with what force they act on the trolley if its speed has changed from zero to 3 m / s in 10 s.

Determine with what force they act on the trolley if its speed has changed from zero to 3 m / s in 10 s. Disregard friction.

m = 50 kg.

t = 10 s.

V0 = 0 m / s.

V = 3 m / s.

F -?

The force F, which acts on the trolley, we express according to 2 Newton’s law, the product of its mass m by the acceleration a, which this force imparts to it: F = m * a.

The acceleration of the body a is expressed according to the definition: a = (V – V0) / t, where (V – V0) is the change in the speed of the body, t is the time during which the change in speed occurs.

The force will be determined by the formula: F = m * (V – V0) / t.

F = 50 kg * (3 m / s – 0 m / s) / 10 s = 15 N.

Answer: a force F = 15 N. acted on the trolley.
