Answer:
3m/s²
Step-by-step explanation:
Force applied to an object can be calculated thus;
F = ma
Where;
F = force applied (Newtons)
m = mass of substance (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)
According to the information provided in this question, F = 12.0 newtons, m = 4.0 kg, a = ?
Derived from F = m.a
We have; a = F/m
a = 12/4
a = 3
The resultant acceleration of the object is 3m/s².
