Force = mass * acceleration

10 N - 2 N = 20 kg * acceleration

8 N = 20 kg * acceleration

8 / 20 = acceleration

2/5 m/s^2 = acceleration

Answer:

The acceleration is 0.4 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 10 N

Opposing force = 2 N

Mass of object = 20 kg

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of newton's second law

F = ma

Where, F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Put the value into the formula

10N-2N = 20\times a

8 N=20\times a

a =\dfrac{8}{20}

a=0.4\ m/s^2

Hence, The acceleration is 0.4 m/s²

You need to put a metal rod
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
-- Put the rod into the freezer for a while.  As it cools,
it contracts (gets smaller) slightly.

-- Put the cylinder into hot hot water for a while.  As it heats,
it expands (gets bigger) slightly.

-- Bring the rod and the cylinder togther quickly, before the
rod has a chance to warm up or the cylinder has a chance
to cool off.

-- I bet it'll fit now.

-- But be careful . . . get the rod exactly where you want it as fast
as you can.  Once both pieces come back to the same temperature,
and the rod expands a little and the cylinder contracts a little, the fit
will be so tight that you'll probably never get them apart again, or even
move the rod.
