A 9.0-kg bowling ball on a horizontal, frictionless surface experiences a net force of 6.0 n. what will be its acceleration?
1 answer:
This question involves the concepts of Newton's Second Law of Motion.
The acceleration of the bowling ball will be "0.67 m/s²".
<h3>Newton's Second Law of Motion</h3>According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, when an unbalanced force is applied on an object, it produces an acceleration in it, in the direction of the applied force. This acceleration is directly proportional to the force applied and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Mathematically,
where,
- a = acceleration = ?
- F = Magnitude of the applied force = 6 N
- m = Mass of the ball = 9 kg
Therefore,
a = 0.67 m/s²

Answer:
734.215N
Explanation:
First we calculate the angle that corresponds to a 5% slope using the Tan-1 function
then we use the component that corresponds to the direction parallel to the road, additionally we must multiply by the gravity value to find the weight(g=9.81m/s^2)
Wx=M*g*sen(2.86)=1500kg*9.81*sen(2.86)=734.215N
