Greyhounds can accelerate at 7/m/s2 at a start of the race . How much force does it take a 35 kg dog to produce this acceleration?
To calculate the force required for a 35 kg greyhound to accelerate at 7 m/s^2, we can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a), or F = m * a.
In this case, the mass of the dog (m) is given as 35 kg, and the acceleration (a) is 7 m/s^2. Plugging these values into the equation, we get:
F = 35 kg * 7 m/s^2
Multiplying the mass (35 kg) by the acceleration (7 m/s^2), we find:
F = 245 kg*m/s^2
The unit for force is the newton (N), which is equivalent to kg*m/s^2. So, the force required for the 35 kg dog to produce an acceleration of 7 m/s^2 is 245 N.
