Answer:
f=force m=mass and a=acceleration
When an unbalanced force acts on an object the change in the object state of rest or motion depends on the size and direction of the force.
If a body is at state of rest or motion, when an unbalanced external force acts on it, its starts moving in the direction of force and magnitude of its velocity or acceleration depends on the magnitude of force applied.
Answer:
A. It must be zero
Explanation:
A spacecraft leaves the solar system at a velocity of 1,500 m/s. The net force on this spacecraft is zero. What can we say about the spacecraft's acceleration?
According to Newton's second law
Force = Mass × acceleration
If the net force is zero
0 = mass × acceleration
0 = ma
a = 0/m
a = 0m/s²
this shows that the acceleration will be zero If the net force is zero
