Answer:

Explanation:

Unbalanced forces will result in the presence of acceleration. The formula

F net = ma

says that if there is a net force present and the object in question has a mass, then an acceleration is present. Now acceleration is constant in this situation because nowhere does it say the acceleration is changing. If acceleration is constant then the velocity is increasing at a steady pace (think linear function!).

The direction of the object depends on the direction that the net force is in. If the net force is to the left, then that object will accelerate to the left.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The forces are of the same magnitude just opposite directions

Explanation:

Newton's Third law tells us that if body A exerts a force on body B, then B exerts an equal but opposite force on body B. so as you continue to push the rock causing it to accelerate, the rock also continues to push back at you by an equal force in the opposite direction.

A 7.00-kg object undergoes an acceleration given by ax=3.00 and ay= 9.00 m/s2. Find (a) the components of the force acting on th

lord [1]

Answer:

66.4 N

Explanation:

From Newton's second law, F = ma

where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

Because the object has acceleration in two directions and the mass is constant, the force will be in two directions. The component of the forces are:

$F_x = ma_x = (7.00\text{ kg})(3.00 \text{ m/s}^2) = 21.0\text{ N}$
