Question

A 60 and N net force is applied to a 12 kg box which is the acceleration of the box?

Answer 1

The relation between force and mass and acceleration is

`Force = mass X acceleration`

The SI unit will be

Force = Newton

mass =kg

acceleration=
`(m)/(s^(2) )`

thus

`acceleration = (Force)/(mass)`

putting values

`acceleration=(60 N)/(12kg)=5(m)/(s^(2) )`

Thus the acceleration will be

`5(m)/(s^(2) )`
