Question

You work at a garden store for the summer. You lift a bag of fertilizer with a force of 113N, and it moves upward with an acceleration of 0.812 m/s²

(a) What is the mass (in kg) of the fertilizer bag?
(b) How much (in N) does the fertilizer bag weigh?

Answer 1

The force on a wagon with a mass of 55 kg and an acceleration of 0.0255 m/s² is 1.4025 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

(b) The force acting on an object is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration. In this case, we have a wagon with a mass of 55 kg and an acceleration of 0.0255 m/s². To find the force on the wagon, we can use the formula: F = m * a. Plugging in the values, we get: F = 55 kg * 0.0255 m/s² = 1.4025 N.

Therefore, the force on the wagon is 1.4025 N.
