Newton’s 2nd Law
A force of 2 Newtons acts on a cart that is initially at rest
on an air track with no air and pushed for 1 second.
Because there is friction (no air), the cart stops
immediately after I finish pushing.
It has traveled a distance, D.

Next, the force of 2 Newtons acts again
but is applied for 2 seconds.

The new distance the cart moves relative
to D is:

We know that under constant acceleration,
∆x = a (∆t)2 /2

Here ∆t2=2∆t1,
