Question

Somebody please help

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 0.1067 [m/s²]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must first draw a free body diagram with the forces acting on it.

a)

In the attached image we can find the free body diagram.

b)

The net force can be found by performing a sum of forces on the X-axis, these forces are seen in the free body diagram.

∑Fx = Fr

where:

Fr = resultant force [N] (units of Newtons)

$F_{r}=275+275-310\\F_{r}=240[N]$

c)

Acceleration can be found by means of Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of the forces in a body or the resulting force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

where:

m = mass = 2250 [kg]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

$240=2250*a\\a=0.1067[m/s^{2} ]$
