Answer:

(35 N - 10 N)/8kg = 3.125 m/s^2

Explanation:

The formula for Force is:

Force = Mass*Acceleration

(Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration)

Since we're told to find the acceleration of the box. We make acceleration the subject of the equation:

Acceleration = Force/Mass

(Acceleration equal to Force divided by Mass)

We know that the force are 35 N forward and 10 N backward, and the weight of the box is 8kg.

= (35 N - 10 N)/8kg

The reason that 35 N minus 10 N is because the 10 N is pushing the box backward.

= 25 N/8kg

= 3.125 m/s^2

Hope it helps :DD

Answer:

move at constant velocity.

Explanation:

Newton's first law (also known as law of inertia) states that:

"when the net force acting on an object is zero, the object will keep its state of rest or if it is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity".

In the case of the probe, friction in deep space is negligible, therefore when the engine is shut down, there are no more forces acting on the probe: the net force therefore will be zero, so the probe will move at constant velocity.
