It is 5 m/s2 but on my apex test I had to type it in and got it wrong because I put the m/s2 in it, hope this helped you.

Because the direction of the kicks are opposite, the net force between the applied forces is their difference.
                        Fn = F₂ - F₁
Substituting,
                        Fn = 15 N - 5 N
                        Fn = 10 N

From Newton's second law of motion,
                       Fn = m x a
where m is mass and a is acceleration. Manipulating the equation so that we are able to calculate for a,
                       a = Fn / m

Substituting,
                      a = (10 N) / 2 kg
                       a = 5 m/s²

<em>ANSWER: 5 m/s²</em>

Leah watches a toy car move across a table at a constant speed. The car moves across the table in one direction and falls off th
Sedbober [7]

In order to change the direction and speed, a net external force is required. A net external force is an unbalanced force which will change the direction and gives the speed in the opposite direction. Hence, its an unbalanced force from the joey that pushes the car in the other direction due to which it the car starts to move back to Leah. Without, unbalanced force there is not change in the direction of the car's motion.

Hence, option B is correct.
