A particle of mass 8 kg is undergoing one-dimensional motion. It is subject to a constant force of 35 N, and has an initial speed of 9 m/s. The force is parallel to the initial velocity, both of which are directed in the positive direction along the axis of motion.
What is the change in velocity Δv, in meters per second, of the particle between t = 0 and t = 3 s?
What is the displacement Δx, in meters, of the particle between t = 0 and t = 3 s?
An electron is a subatomic particle (m= 9.11 x 10-31 kg) that is subject to electric forces. An electron
moving in the +x direction accelerates from an initial velocity of +7.31 x 105 m/s to a final velocity
of 1.98 x 106 m/s while traveling a distance of 0.0545 m. The electron's acceleration is due to two
electric forces parallel to the x axis: F₁ = 7.52 x 10-¹7 N, and F2, which points in the -x direction.
