Answer:
<em>Answer: (A) 0.75 m/s^2</em>
Explanation:
The Second Newton's law states that an object acquires acceleration when an external unbalanced net force is applied to it.
That acceleration is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
It can be expressed with the formula:
Where
Fn = Net force
m = mass
The ice skater pushes against a wall with a force of 59 N. The wall returns the force and the skater now has a net force of Fn=59 N that makes him accelerate. Being m=79 kg the mass of the skater, the acceleration is:
