How far will a 600 kg boat travel in 12 s if there is a constant 900 N force on it and it starts from rest?

108 metres

Explanation:

Given

Required

Determine the distance moved

First, we need to determine the acceleration.

Solve for a

Next, we determine the distance using:

Since it starts from rest,

So:

that would be because of both gravity and friction. so     c

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
