### Projectile Motion Experiment**Scenario:**Scientists are experimenting with a kind of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. In one test, this gun accelerates a 7.0-kg projectile from rest to a speed of \( 2.7 \times 10^3 \) m/s. The net force accelerating the projectile is \(8.2 \times 10^5\) N. The problem asks to determine the amount of time required for the projectile to come up to speed.**Given Data:**- Mass of the projectile: \( 7.0 \) kg- Final speed of the projectile: \( 2.7 \times 10^3 \) m/s- Net force applied to the projectile: \( 8.2 \times 10^5 \) N**Formula to Use:**The equation \( F = ma \) relates force, mass, and acceleration. We can rearrange this equation to solve for acceleration (\(a\)):\[ a = \frac{F}{m} \]Once we have the acceleration, we can use kinematic equations to find the time (\(t\)). Since the projectile starts from rest, we use:\[ v = at \]where \( v \) is the final velocity and \( t \) is the time.Rearranging to solve for time:\[ t = \frac{v}{a} \]**Solution Steps:**1. Calculate the acceleration:\[ a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{8.2 \times 10^5 \text{ N}}{7.0 \text{ kg}} = 1.17 \times 10^5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \]2. Calculate the time:\[ t = \frac{v}{a} = \frac{2.7 \times 10^3 \text{ m/s}}{1.17 \times 10^5 \, \text{m/s}^2} \approx 0.023 \text{ s} \]**User UI:**- The input text box shows the answer: **0.023**.- The dropdown menu below the input box selects the unit of measurement, in this case, **seconds (s)**.- The system provides a hint section, although this hint is not visible in the current image

You are trying to escape a hoard of zombies and must make an elevator to get down a cliff as fast as possible. As you cannot hit the ground faster than 10m/s and the cliff is 25m deep, this limits your acceleration to 2 m/s2 (you will want to accelerate at this rate to get down the cliff as fast as you can). Assuming your and the bucket’s mass together is 100kg (m2) , what is the minimum mass (m1) that the sled must be to prevent your death (assume the ground is frictionless).
