Question:
You are a newly graduated astronaut preparing for your first trip into space. Plans call for your spacecraft to reach a velocity of 500 m/s after 2.4 min. If your mass is 75 kg, what force will be exerted on your body? Assume the acceleration is constant.
Step by Step Answer:
We can apply Newtons second law and the equations of motion for a constant acceleration No sketch is ...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.
