Answer:

a = 5.5 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

ΣF =m*a

where:

F = Force [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 20 [kg]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Let's take the force of 230 [N] as positive, in this way the other force will be negative, by pointing in the opposite direction.

230 - 120 = 20*a\\110 = 20*a\\a=5.5 [m/s^{2} ]

Which Equation will you use to solve this question (use the chart at the end of the lesson) While skiing, Sam flies down a hill
ozzi

A.Momentum Equation

m = mass = 75 kg

v = velocity = 18 m/s

P = momentum

Using the momentum equation , momentum is given as

P = mv

P = 75 x 18

P = 1350 kgm/s
