Solution

To find the mass of the shark, we can use the formula for force, which is F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.

Given: Force (F) = 25,000 N Acceleration (a) = 1.25 m/s²

We need to find mass (m), so we rearrange the formula to m = F/a.

Substituting the given values into the formula, we get:

m = 25,000 N / 1.25 m/s² = 20,000 kg

So, the mass of the shark is 20,000 kg.

A model sailboat is slowly sailing west across a pond at 0.310 m/s. A gust of wind blowing at 28.3° south of west gives the sailboat a constant acceleration of magnitude 0.314 m/s2 during a time interval of 2.18 s. If the net force on the sailboat during the 2.18-s interval has magnitude 0.318 N, what is the sailboat's mass?
