-- If it's at rest, then it's not accelerating.

-- If it's not accelerating, then the net force acting on it is <em>zero</em>. (See Newton's 2nd law of motion.)

Answer:

Net force equals 0

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that an object at rest tends to remain at rest, and an object in motion tends to remain in motion with a constant velocity (constant speed and direction of motion), unless it is acted on by a nonzero net force. Note that the net force is the sum of all the forces acting on an object.

Finding out the acceleration 12/3 = 4m/s^2
thus it is descending so the actual acceleration would be 9.8-4 = 5.8 m/s^2
the weight will be 90*5.8 = 522 N
522/9.8 = 53.2 kg

Starting from rest and moving in a straight line, a cheetah
UNO [17]

The average acceleration of the cheetah is 7.75 m/s²

The given parameters;

velocity of the cheetah, v = 31 m/s

time of  motion, t = 4 seconds

The average acceleration of the cheetah is calculated as follows;

Average \ acceleration = \frac{\Delta velocity}{\Delta time } \\\\Average \ acceleration = \frac{v-u}{t}

where;

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time of motion

Assuming the cheetah started from rest, the initial velocity, u = 0

The average acceleration is calculated as follows;

Average \ acceleration = \frac{v-u}{t} = \frac{31-0}{4} = 7.75 \ m/s^2

Thus, the average acceleration of the cheetah is 7.75 m/s²
