2.Motion in Straight Line
easy
An object with a mass $10 \,kg$ moves at a constant velocity of $10 \,m/sec$. A constant force then acts for $4\, second$ on the object and gives it a speed of $2\, m/sec$ in opposite direction. The acceleration produced in it, is ........ $m/{\sec ^2}$
A
$3$
B
$ - 3$
C
$0.3$
D
$ - 0.3$
Solution
(b)$\vec a = \frac{{\overrightarrow {{v_2}} – \overrightarrow {{v_1}} }}{t} = \frac{{( – 2) – ( + 10)}}{4} = \frac{{ – 12}}{4} = – 3\;m/{s^2}$
