The cliff is 319. kilograms above the water
Answer:
Explanation:
Convert the mass to kg:
375g = 375/1000kg = 0.375kg
F = ma
-20 = 0.375a
a = -20/0.375
a = -53
The object is accelerating at 53m/s/s backwards assuming that the forward motion is positive.
F = m • a
What we know:
- Gravity: 9.8 m/s
- Force: 490 N
Equation derived:
m = F/a
m = 490/9.8
= 50 kg
<span>According to newton's second law of motion,the acceleration of an object equals the net force acting on the object divided by the objects "Mass"
