Answer:

a = 30 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 250 kg, 7500N

To find: Acceleration (a)

Solution: To find the acceleration (A), divide the force by the weight

A = F ÷ m

= 7500 ÷ 250

= 30 m/s²

Newtons are derived units, equal to 1 kg-m/s². In other words, a single Newton is equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared.
