Answer:
Velocity
Explanation:
Objects in motion usually have a speed which is scalar or velocity which is a vector.
A scalar quantity is one with magnitude but has no directional attribute.
A vector quantity is one with both magnitude and directional attribute.
Speed is a scalar quantity that describes the magnitude of motion a body accrues.
Velocity is a vector quantity that describes both the magnitude of motion and the direction of motion in a body.
Answer
given,
mass of the = m₁ = 8.75 Kg
another mass of the object = m₂ = 14 Kg
distance between them = 50 cm
R₁ = 17 cm
R₂ = 50 -17 = 33 cm
a) Force applied due to the Mass 8.75 in +ve x- direction



Force applied due to mass 14 Kg in -ve x-direction



net force
F = F₁ + F₂


Using newton second law



b) As the acceleration of mass comes out to be +ve hence, the direction will be toward the mass of 8.75 Kg
