What is the expected acceleration of the child?

F = 75 N

.


A. 0.67 m/s2
B. 1.50 m/s2
C. 6.70 m/s2
D. 25.0 m/s2

Answer 1

1.50 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

`a = (f)/(m) \\`

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

`a = (75)/(50) = (3)/(2) \\`

We have the final answer as

1.50 m/s²

Hope this helps you
