The speed of a 2.0-kg object changes from 30 m/s to 40 m/s during a 5.0-second time interval. During this same time interval, the velocity of the object changes its direction by 90°. What is the
magnitude of the average total force acting on the object during this time interval?
a. 30 N
b. 20 N
c. 15 N
d. 40 N
e. 10 N
Which is the correct answer?

Consider an ordinary, helium-filled party balloon with a volume of 2.2 ft3. the lifting force on the balloon due to the outside air is the net resultant of the pressure distribution exerted on the exterior surface of the balloon. using this fact, we can derive archimedes’ principle, namely that the upward force on the balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon. assuming that the balloon is at sea level, where the air density is 0.002377 slug/ft3, calculate the maximum weight that can be lifted by the balloon. note: the molecular weight of air is 28.8 and that of helium is 4.
