F=17.7N
m=8.30kg
a=?
F=ma
a=F/m
a=17.7/8.30 (m/s^2)
I’m too lazy to use a calculator so yea. Just divide 17.7 by 8.30 and add unites (m/s^2)

Answer:

2.13m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use equation:

Fnet=ma

If 17.7 is the netto force (Fnet) then you just substitute the values in and solve.

Note m is mass (kg) and a is acceleration (m/s^2)
