Let me show my process: v= 45 m/s vo= 0 m/s t= 7.0 s m = 5.5 x 10^3 kg a=? F=? To solve for acceleration, I've used a kinematics equation: v=vo+at a= (45 m/s) / (7.0 s) = 6.428 m/s^2 Then we use Newton's 2nd law: F=ma F= (5.5 x 10^3 kg)(6.428 m/s^2) F is
How am I incorrect though? I've used a kinematics equation v=vo+at, which resulted in me getting my acceleration and plugged in Newton's 2nd law as well as multiplying the acceleration by the given mass, resulting in an answer similar to this, only I
