Answer:

2.5\ m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's Second Law: Force on a body is equal to the product of mass and acceleration of the centre of the mass of the body.

Force(F)=Mass(m)\times Acceleration(a)

Initially:

Let\ mass=m\ kg\\\\acceleration=10\ m/s^2\\\\Force(F)=m\times 10=10m

At the end of the road:

Let\ mass=4\times m\ kg\\\\acceleration=a\ m/s^2\\\\Force(F)=4m\times a=4ma

Both\ forces\ are\ equal\\\\4ma=10m\\\\divide\ both\ the\ sides\ by\ m\\\\4a=10\\\\a=\frac{10}{4}\\\\a=2.5\ m/s^2

Determine whether the triangles are similar
olchik [2.2K]

Step-by-step explanation:

ur are choosing correct option as,

W = Y ( 90° given )

VW = YZ ( as both are || to eachother so their length is same )

angle X = X ( vertically opposite angle)

therefore, ∆WVX = ∆ZYX are congruent according to SAS congruency rule/criteria.

hope this answer helps you dear..take care and may u have a great day ahead and also ur exam/test goes well!.
