Answer:
6.2 seconds
Explanation:
Using Newton's second law, ∑F=ma, we know the net force acting on the object is Force applied-Force of friction. The net force is 203 N. Newton's second law requires the mass of an object, not the weight force, so we will have to calculate the mass. We know that m*g=weight force, in this case, solve for the mass and you will get 210 kg. Now that we have the value of the net force and the mass, we can solve for acceleration. [tex]\frac{F}{m}=a[/tex]=0.967 m/s^2. Now, since we have the acceleration, initial velocity(0 m/s), and the final velocity (6m/s) we will use these to solve for time using the kinematic equation Vf=Vi + at. Plug in the values we know and solve for time and you will get 6.2 seconds
