I have a physics problem. I can't seem to find a way to solve it.
A cart of mass 500 kg is rolling with a speed of 5 m/s on a railway track. There is very little friction between the tracks and the cart. You apply a constant force on the cart in the direction opposite to its velocity. From the moment you start applying the force, the cart moves 30 m before coming to a stop. What was the approximate magnitude of the force you applied?

Why do we sometimes calculate the work with the cosinus of the angle between the force and the displacement and sometimes without it? Is this in a special case or an exception?

Hi! In a problem, I am told that the work done on an object is 250 J and that it moves 7.5 m by a force with an orientation of 45 °. How do I know the value of the force from this?
Thank you !

Hi! I’m confusing refraction and reflection. When I look at myself in a mirror, which of the two concepts is it? And what about when I see my straw strangely when it's in my glass of water? Thank you for your help!

Good morning!
I have a science lab this week and I don't understand why in the protocol it says to weigh the weighing scoop first by itself and after the weighing scoop plus the solution.
Can someone explain to me please?

I do not understand the concept of effective force? Why would a force be ineffective?
