A constant force of friction 50N is acting on a body of mass 200 Kg moving initially with a speed of 15 m/s. How long does the body take to stop? What distance will it cover before coming to rest?

F=-50N

M=200kg

U=15m/s

F=Ma

a=F/M=-50/200=-0.25

V^2-U^2=2aS

0-(15)^2=2(-0.25)S

S=-225/-0.5=450m

V=U+at

0=15-0.25t

t=-15/-0.25=60s

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!

Have a great day.

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
