hello

the question here deals with force, mass and acceleration

according to our physics,

force = mass * acceleration

that is, force is a product of mass and acceleration

mass = 200kg

force = 1000N

acceleration = ?


\begin{gathered} \text{data} \\ \text{mass}=200\operatorname{kg} \\ \text{force}=1000N \\ \text{acceleration = x} \\ \text{force = mass}* acceleration \\ 1000=200* x \\ 1000=200x \\ \text{divide both sides by 200} \\ (1000)/(200)=(200x)/(200) \\ x=(5m)/(s^2) \end{gathered}

the acceleration of the cart is 5m/s^2
