Question

7. A 1.5 N force is applied to an air hockey puck with a mass of 0.10 kg. With what

acceleration does the puck move across the air table?

Answer 1

15m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

Force = mass * acceleration

Given

Force = 1.5N

mass = 0.10kg

Required

acceleration

Substitute into the expression;

1.5 = 0.1a

a = 1.5/0.1

a = 15m/s²

Hence the acceleration that the puck move across the air table is 15m/s²
