A 13 kg ball is pushed from rest to a final velocity of 10 m/s. The ball travels 5 m. How much force is the ball pushed with?
To find the force exerted on the ball, we need to use the work-energy principle to determine the work done on the ball.
Given:
Mass = 13 kg
Initial velocity = 0 m/s
Final velocity = 10 m/s2
Distance = 5 m
The initial kinetic energy:
Calculate the final kinetic energy:
