2-2
2.1 The “standard” acceleration (at sea level and 45° latitude) due to gravity is
9.80665 m/s2. What is the force needed to hold a mass of 2 kg at rest in this
gravitational field ? How much mass can a force of 1 N support ?

Solution:
ma = 0 = ¦ F = F - mg F
F = mg = 2 u 9.80665 = 19.613 N g
F = mg => m
m = F/g = .80665 = 0.102 kg



2.2 A model car rolls down an incline with a slope so the gravitational “pull” in the
direction of motion is one third of the standard gravitational force (see Problem
2.1). If the car has a mass of 0.45 kg find the acceleration.

Solution:


ma = ¦ F = mg / 3
a = mg / 3m = g/3
= 9. = 3.27 m/s2 g




This acceleration does not depend on the mass of the model car.



2.3 A force of 125 N is applied to a mass of 12 kg in addition to the standard
gravitation. If the direction of the force is vertical up find the acceleration of the
mass.

Solution: x

Fup = ma = F – mg F
a = ( F – mg ) / m = F / m – g
= 125/12 – 9.807 g
m
= 0.61 ms-2



2.4 A car drives at 60 km/h and is brought to a full stop with constant deceleration in 5
seconds. If the total car and driver mass is 1075 kg find the necessary force.

2-3
Solution:

Acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity.
dV 60 u 1000
a= = = 3.33 m/s2
dt 3600 u 5
ma = ¦ F ;
Fnet = ma = 1075 u 3.333 = 3583 N


2.5 A 1200-kg car moving at 20 km/h is accelerated at a constant rate of 4 m/s2 up to
a speed of 75 km/h. What are the force and total time required?

Solution:

dV 'V 'V (75  20) 1000
a= = => 't = = = 3.82 sec
dt 't a 3600 u 5

F = ma = 1200 u 4 = 4800 N

2.6 A steel plate of 950 kg accelerates from rest with 3 m/s2 for a period of 10s. What
force is needed and what is the final velocity?

Solution:

Constant acceleration can be integrated to get velocity.
dV
a=
dt
=> ³ dV = ³ a dt => 'V = a 't
F
'V = a 't = 3 u 10 = 30 m/s => V = 30 m/s


F = ma = 950 u 3 = 2850 N
