If the mass is m= 6 kg and the initial velocity is V- 0. Use the work-energy theorem to find the final velocity C. If the process in part (B) took a time of t = 0.8s, use your answer from part (B) to Calculate the acceleration of the block. D. Now use Newton's second law ( in the x-direction) to calculate the acceleration. Your answers from Part ( C) and ( D) should be pretty close. They're different Because of rounding errors. dyarrow_forward1. Some species of whales can dive to depths of 800m. What is the total pressure they experience at this depth?
