Question

A 0.15 kg baseball is pushed with 100 N force. what will its acceleration be?

Answer 1

The acceleration of the ball is 666.67 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.15 kg

Applied force to it, F = 100 N

We need to find the acceleration of the ball. It can be calculated using Newton's second law of motion as :

F = ma

`a=(F)/(m)`

`a=(100\ N)/(0.15\ kg)`

`a=666.67\ m/s^2`

So, the acceleration of the ball is 666.67 m/s². Hence, this is the required solution.
