Homework Statement
A 70kg mass is in a space and moving at 2.5 m/s. You push it with 200N for 4 m. You then move to the front of the mass and push it backwards with 170N for 3 m.
What was the total work done?
What was the final velocity?
Homework Equations
W = rest energy + F1*r - F2*r
The Attempt at a Solution
rest energy = 1/2*70*(2.5)2 = 218.75
F1*r = 200*4 = 800
F2*r = 170*3 = 510
W = 218.75 + 800 - 510 = 508.75 J
How would i get the final velocity?
