t=6 s

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 5

We have to find the acceleration and velocity of a 2.0 kg object at t = 6 s.

The acceleration of the object can be found using Newton’s second law.


Where,

 Force acting on the object in kg

 mass of the object = 2 kg

 acceleration in \(m/s^2\)

Thus,

Now at  s,  N (from the graph)

Hence,

    = 0 \(m/s^2\)
