Q10

Newton's second law of the motion was originally written as  F= \dfrac{dp}{dt}, where

• F is the force of acting on the object, in newtons

• p is the momentum of the object, in kilogram metres per second, given by the equation  p =mv (where m is the mass of the object, in kilograms, and v is the velocity of the object in metres per second).

• t is time, in seconds.

a) Assuming an object's mass is constant, use this definition to show that Newton's second law can also be written as F = ma, where a is the acceleration of the object.

b) Suppose an object is oscillating such that its velocity, in metre per second, at time t is given by the function v(t) = 2\cos 3t, where t is time, in seconds. Find the times when the force acting on the object is zero.

c) What is the speed of the object at these times?
