Question

Identify the formula to calculate the force in a variable mass constant velocity system.

  1. F = m/t
  2. F = mv
  3. F = ma
  4. F = v(dm/dt)

hintHint:

F= v(dm/dt) + m(dv/dt)

The correct answer is: F = v(dm/dt)


    • F= v(dm/dt)+m(dv/dt)
    • dm/dt can be also written as a .
    • Hence, F = v(dm/dt) is for variable mass system.
