A ball has a mass of 2 kg and is thrown with a force of 8 Newtons for .35 seconds. What is the ball's change in velocity?

1.4s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball  = 2kg

Force  = 8N

Time  = 0.35s

Unknown:

Change in velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression obtained from Newton's second law of motion which is shown below:

      Ft  = m(v  - u)

 So;

         Ft  = m Δv

F is the force

t is the time

m is the mass

Δv is the change in velocity

             8 x 0.35  = 2 x Δv

                  Δv  = 1.4s

where is the
