Question

A 0.15 kg baseball is pushed with 100 N force. what will its acceleration be?

Answer 1

Answer:

The acceleration of the ball is 666.67 m/s²

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.15 kg

Applied force to it, F = 100 N

We need to find the acceleration of the ball. It can be calculated using Newton's second law of motion as :

F = ma

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$a=\dfrac{100\ N}{0.15\ kg}$

$a=666.67\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the ball is 666.67 m/s². Hence, this is the required solution.
