Answer:

  • 3.1 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the relation :

  • Force = Mass x Acceleration

We can rearrange so it is equal to acceleration :

  • Acceleration = Force / Mass

Here :

  • Mass = 2.0 kg
  • Force = 6.2 N

Substituting the values in our rearranged equation :

  • a = 6.2 / 2.0
  • a = 3.1 m/s²

Therefore, the resulting acceleration of the object will be 3.1 m/s²

Answer:

F=mass×acceleration

Acceleration=force÷mass

6.2/2=3.1

The resulting acceleration is 3.1 m/s2
