A 2 N and an 8 N force pull on an object to the right and a 4 N force pulls to the left a 0.5 kg object. What is the acceleration on the object?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Acceleration is 12m/s^2

Explanation:

We have a resultant force of 10N to the right and a resultant of 4N to the left, since the tow forces are acting in opposite directions, we subtract the two forces to find the net force. The net force would be 6N to the right.

We also know that F=ma, where F=force, m=mass, and a=acceleration

we can rearrange the equation like this,

a=F/m

now we can plug in the known variables

a=6N/0.5kg

a=12m/s^2
