Question

1. You are pushing a heavy shopping cart full of water bottles with a constant force. The shopping cart has

mass of 250 kg and it is accelerating down the aisle at 0.20 m/s? How much force are you exerting?

Answer 1

F = 50 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of car = 250 Kg

Acceleration of car = 0.20 m/s²

Force required = ?

Solution:

Formula:

F = m×a

F = applied force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Now we will put the values in formula.

F = 250 Kg × 0.20 m/s²

F = 50 Kg.m/s²

Kg.m/s² = N

F = 50 N
