The rocket now has a thruster that malfunctions and is now pushing the rocket in the wrong direction. What is the new net force on the rocket if it is now accelerating at 12m/s²​

Let,

The value of mass be 1 kg.

Given,

Acceleration = 12 m/s²

Now,

As we know, Force = mass × acceleration ( F = m × a )

F = 1 × 12

F = 12

Therefore, the new net force is 12.

Additional Comment:

F means Force.

  • Let mass be 1kg
  • Acceleration is 12m/s^2


\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Mass* Acceleration


\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=1(12)


\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=12N
