Answer:
The body must be moving with a constant non zero acceleration.
Explanation:
Force produces acceleration on any mass it is applied on. The acceleration produced depends on the magnitude and direction of the force. For this block being dragged by a constant horizontal force, The body will undergo a constant non-zero acceleration that will steadily increase its velocity along the direction of the force.
Answer:
3.43 m/s^2
Explanation:
Force is equal to mass times acceleration. (F=ma). You can use inverse operations to get the formula for acceleration, which is acceleration is equal to force divided by mass. (a=F/m). Since there are two forces here, the force friction (55 N), and the force applied (175 N), we must solve for the net force. To solve for the net force, you take the applied force (175 N) and subtract the frictional force from it (55 N). Thus, the net force is 120 N. With this done, we can now solve for our acceleration.
Using the equation for acceleration, we take the force and divide it by mass.
120/35
Answer: 3.43* m/s^2**
*Note: This is rounded to the nearest hundredth, the full answer is: 3.42857143
**Note: In case you're confused, this is meters per second squared.
The answer is 8.
