A 3 kg object is moving with a velocity of 4 m/s. If a force of 12 N is applied in the opposite direction, what will be its velocity after 2 seconds?
0 m/s
2 m/s
4 m/s
6 m/s
Acceleration = F/m = -12 N / 3 kg = -4 m/s². Change in velocity = a * t = -4 m/s² * 2 s = -8 m/s. Final velocity = 4 m/s - 8 m/s = -4 m/s (object stops).
