Homework Statement
A block of mass 2 kg starts from rest and begins to move at time t=0 along a straight line on a smooth horizontal surface. The displacement of the block, s, depends on time, t, given by s=3+2t+t^3 . t is expressed in second and s in meter. Calculate the average force acting on the block during the first 3 seconds of its motion. Express your answer in Newton.
Homework Equations
F=ma
The Attempt at a Solution
To find avg force , I'll need to find avg acceleration and then multiply it with mass of block.
But the problem is I don't know how to calculate avg acceleration from displacement as a function of time . Please Help.
