Answer:

Acceleration is 6 meters per square seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

  • Force (F) = 30 N
  • Mass (m) = 5kg
  • Acceleration (a) = ?

Use formula:


  • \boxed{\bold{a=(F)/(m)}}

Replace:


  • \boxed{\bold{a=(30\ N)/(5\ kg)}}

Solve the division, remember remember that N / kg is equal to m/s²:


  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{a=6(m)/(s^(2))}}}
