Question

If a book with a mass of 5.0 kg, is pushed across a table with a net force of 30. N, what is its acceleration?​

Answer 1

`a=6\ m/s^2`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a block, m = 5 kg

It is pushed with a net force of 30 N

We need to find its acceleration. The net force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma

a is the acceleration of the block

`a=(F)/(m)\\\\a=(30\ N)/(5\ kg)\\\\a=6\ m/s^2`

So, the acceleration of the block is
`6\ m/s^2`.
