<em>friction = 3 N 
pushing force= 9 N
as both are opposite in direction so their net force will be = 9-3= 6N
as we know that
F = ma 
re arranging the equation
a = F/m
by putting values 
a =  6/3 N/kg
a= 2 m/sec

The 'net' force acting on the box is (9 - 3) = 6 newtons
in the direction that Carlos is pushing.

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

6 = (3) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by 3 :

<em>2 m/s² = acceleration</em>

The spider will cross the driveway <u>25.71 in seconds</u>.

Why?

It's a conversion problem, so, in order to solve it, we need to convert the units of the given information.

Let's convert the given speed (in cm/s) to m/s.

We know that:

1m=100cm

So, converting we have:

14\frac{cm}{s}*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.14\frac{m}{s}

Then, calculating the time, we have:

distance=speed*time\\\\3.6m=0.14\frac{m}{s}*time\\\\time=\frac{3.6m}{0.14\frac{m}{s}}=25.71s

We have that the spider will cross the driveway in 25.71 seconds.

Have a nice day!

Two objects are in freefall. Object A experiences a gravitational force of
Vlad1618 [11]

<u>Answer:</u>

Both the objects A and B will have the same acceleration.

<u>Explanation :</u>

The objects will have the same acceleration as both are under free fall condition. When objects are under the free fall condition, the only force that acts on the object is its weight.

Weight is the force acting on a body of some mass, and the formula for finding the weight of a body is- Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity(g).

Therefore, here the different weight is due to the difference masses of both bodies, and not due to the different acceleration values.
