3. what average net force is required to stop a 7 kg shopping cart in 2 s if it's initially
traveling at 3.5 m/s?

The force required to stop the shopping cart is, F = 12.25 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the shopping cart, m = 7 kg

The initial velocity of the shopping cart, u = 3.5 m/s

The final velocity of the shopping cart, v = 0 m/s

The time period of acceleration, t = 2 s

The change in momentum of the cart,

                                       p = m(u - v)

                                          = 7 (3.5 - 0)

                                          = 24.5 kg m/s

The force is defined as the rate of change of momentum. To stop the shopping cart, the force required is given by the formula

                                            F = p / t

                                                = 24.5 / 2

                                                = 12.25 N

Hence, the force required to stop the shopping cart is, F = 12.25 N

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
