Question

A 7.0kg object rests on a horizontal frictionless surface. What is the magnitude of the horizontal

Answer 1

Answer:

16.1 N

Explanation:

From the question,

F = ma.............................. Equation 1

Where F = horizontal force, m = mass of the object, a = acceleration .

Given: m = 7.0 kg, a = 2.3 m/s²

Substitute this values into equation 1

F = (7.0×2.3)

F = 16.1 N.

Hence the magnitude of the horizontal force is 16.1 N
