Question:
A constant force of 400 N acts on a spacecraft of mass 8000 kg that has an initial velocity of 30 m/s. How far has the spacecraft traveled when it reaches a velocity of 5000 m/s?
Step by Step Answer:
Since there is a constant force on the spacecraft with a known mass we can use Newtons second law to ...View the full answer

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
