Question

brandon and his skateboard together have a mass of 100 kg. how fast will he accelerate on his skateboard if he's pushed forward with a net force of 100 n

Answer 1

From the information given , Brandon and the skateboard have a combined mass of 100kg, and the net force that is applied to them is 100 N.

We use the formula: F = m × v.

Where F= force, m = mass and v = velocity.

In our case F = 100 N and m = 100kg. We need to find v so we rearrange the equation: F = m × v → F/m = v (or v = F / m)

v = F/m → v = 100/ 100 → v = 1

Therefore he will accelerate to 1 m/s.
