Your cat "Ms." (mass 7.00 {\rm kg}) is trying to make it to the top of a frictionless ramp 2.00 {\rm m} long and inclined upward
at 30.0 ^\circ above the horizontal. Since the poor cat can't get any traction on the ramp, you push her up the entire length of the ramp by exerting a constant 100 {\rm N} force parallel to the ramp.
If Ms. takes a running start so that she is moving at 2.40 {\rm m/s} at the bottom of the ramp, what is her speed when she reaches the top of the incline? Use the work-energy theorem.

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion :
The Force acting on an Object is equal to Product of Mass of the Object and Acceleration produced due to the Force.
Force acting = Mass of the Object × Acceleration
Given : Force = 50 newton and Mass of the Object = 10 kg
Substituting the respective values in the Formula, we get :
50 N = 10 kg × Acceleration
Acceleration of the Object = 5 m/s²
