Answer:
, where the minus indicates the direction is opposite to that of the throw.
Explanation:
a)
Since MKS stands for meter-kilogram-second and we know that:
We can write that:
These are conversion factors, equal to 1, so multiplying our results by them won't change their value, only their units.
So we have that:
b)
Newton's 2nd Law tells us that F=ma, and the definition of acceleration is , so we have:
Taking the throw direction as the positive one, for our values we have:
