Solution
A body of mass 2 kg travels according to the law x(t) = pt + qt2 + rt3 where p = 3 ms−1, q = 4 ms−2 and r = 5 ms−3. The force acting on the body at t = 2 seconds is 136 N.
Explanation:
Given, mass = 2 kg
`x(t) = pt + qt^2 + rt^3`
`v = (dx)/(dt) = p + 2qt + 3rt^2`
`a = (dv)/(dt) = 0 + 2q + 6rt`
At t = 2s; a = 2q + 6 × 2 × r
= 2q + 12r
= 2 × 4 + 12 × 5
= 8 + 60
= 68 m/s
Force = F = ma
= 2 × 68
= 136 N
