Question

a dog is running around chasing his tail using a force of 30N. The dog has a mass of 5 kg. what is the dogs acceleration?

Answer 1

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))}}}`

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a = F/m

a = 30/5

a = 6 m/s²
