Question

A rightward force of 460 N is applied to a 286-kg crate to accelerate it across the floor

at what rate?

Answer 1

Acceleration = 1.61 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data:

Force = 460N

Mass = 286kg

To find the acceleration;

Force = mass * acceleration

Substituting into the equation, we have;

460 = 286 * acceleration

Acceleration = 460/286

Acceleration = 1.61 m/s²
