Question

A 20 kg object is pushed with a force of 100 N. What is the resulting acceleration of the

object to the nearest hundredth of a m/s

Answer 1

Acceleration,
`a=5\ m/s^2`

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Mass of the object is 20 kg

Force acting on the object is 100 N

It is required to find the resulting acceleration of the object. Let a is the acceleration. The force acting on object is given by :

`F=ma`

a is acceleration

`a=(F)/(m)\\\\a=(100\ N)/(20\ kg)\\\\a=5\ m/s^2`

So, the resulting acceleration of the object is
`5\ m/s^2`.
