In outer space a rock of mass 11 kg is acted on by a constant net force 31, - 10, 47 N during a 4 s time interval. At the end of this time interval the rock has a velocity of 110, 80, 105 m/s. What was the rock's velocity at the beginning of the time interval?

    98.73 m/s, 83.63 m/s, 87.9 m/s

    Explanation:

    From the question,

    F = m (v-u) / t ... Equation 1

    Where F = Force, m = mass, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

    make u the subject of the equation

    u = v - (Ft/m) ... Equation 2

    Given: F = 31 N, m = 11 kg, t = 4 s, v = 110 m/s

    Substitute into equation 1

    u = 110 - (31*4/11)

    u = 110-11.27

    u = 98.73 m/s.

    For, F = - 10 N, v = 80 m/s

    u = 80 - (-10*4/11)

    u = 80+3.63

    u = 83.63 m/s

    For, F = 47 N, v = 105 m/s

    u = 105 - (47*4/11)

    u = 105-17.1

    u = 87.9 m/s

    The initial velocity at the the beginning of the time interval is 98.73 m/s, 83.63 m/s, 87.9 m/s
