Best Answer

mass of the railroad car =2000kg
velocity=15m/s
time=10s
:.Force applied to stop the railroad car=mass X acceleration
=mass X velocity/time
=2000 X 15 / 10
=30000 N
So, the force applied is 30000 N.

What is the weight of a 2000kg elephant in newtons?

In physics mass (M) is a measure of the quantity of matter in a given object. The weight is a force (F) due to gravity. F is derived by multiplying M by acceleration (a). In SI unit M is in kilograms (kg), a in meters per second per second, and F in Newtons. If the elephant has a Mass of 2000kg, its weight on Earth is 2000kg *9. 8 m/s^2 which equals 19,600 N. Its weight on the moon is only 3,246 newtons, because the moon's mass, and the acceleration of gravity there, are smaller than Earth's.

What is the probability of rolling a 2 and then a 3 with 6-sised cubes?

The probability of rolling a 2 on the first roll is 1 in 6. The probability of rolling a 3 on the second roll is 1 in 6. However, the probability of rolling a 2 on the first roll and 3 on the second roll before you roll at all is 1/6 x 1/6 = 1 in 36.
