Answer:

5m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of wagon  = 10kg

Force of pull  = 70N

Frictional force = 20N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the wagon = ?

Solution:

Frictional force is a force that opposes motion.

The net force is given as:

   Net force  = mass x acceleration

 Force of pull  - Frictional force = mass x acceleration

 Insert the parameters and solve;

     70 - 20  = 10 x acceleration

       50  = 10 x acceleration

      Acceleration  = 5m/s²

pashok25 [27]

Here if we assume that there is no air friction on both balls then we can say

F = mg

now the acceleration is given as

F = ma = mg

a = g

so here both the balls will have same acceleration irrespective of size and mass

so we can say that to find out the time of fall of ball we can use

y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

t = \sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}

now from above equation we can say that time taken to hit the ground will be same for both balls and it is irrespective of its mass and size
