A particle of mass 3kg moving along a straight line under the action of a F N, covers a line distance, d, at time, t, such that d = t\(^2\) + 3t. Find the magnitude of F at time t.
0N
2N
3(2t + 3)N
6N

Explanation

F = m * a

d = t\(^2\) + 3t.

a = \(\frac{d^2d}{dt^2}\)

\(\frac{d[d]}{dt}\) = 2t + 3

\(\frac{d^2d}{dt^2}\) = 2m/s\(^2\)

a = 2m/s\(^2\)


F = m * a


F = 3 × 2 = 6N
