Travelling at 40m/s, right?Wumbolog said:A 4kg object traveling at 40m/s^2
Which direction does the force act?along the x-axis at t=1 is influenced by a constant force of 20N.

SteamKing said:The OP says the 4 kg object is traveling at 40 m/s^2. Usually, the velocity of an object is given, not its acceleration. Is this how the problem was originally specified? 'Traveling' implies velocity, otherwise, one would say an object is accelerating at X m/s^2.
In specifying a problem, you can't mix cause and affect like this. You can either state the acceleration (and ask for something which can be deduced from that, like position, velocity..) or you can specify forces and let the acceleration be deduced.Wumbolog said:Yes, I meant accelerating, I apologize. I "made" this problem to see what I could do given the acceleration
The equation for finding the velocity of an object moving in 2 dimensions is v = √(vx^2 + vy^2), where vx is the horizontal velocity and vy is the vertical velocity.
Velocity is a vector quantity that includes both the magnitude and direction of an object's motion, while speed is a scalar quantity that only measures the magnitude of an object's motion.
Yes, the velocity of an object in 2 dimensions can change if there is a change in either the horizontal or vertical velocity, or both.
The velocity of an object in 2 dimensions can be affected by forces such as gravity, friction, and air resistance. These forces can change the magnitude and direction of the object's velocity.
To calculate the velocity of an object in 2 dimensions from its position and time data, you can use the following equation: v = (xf - xi)/(tf - ti), where xf and xi are the final and initial positions in the x-direction, and tf and ti are the final and initial times.
