The acceleration of the wagon along the ground is 3.6 m/s².
To solve the problem above, we need to use the formula of acceleration as related to force and mass.
Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity.
⇒ Formula:
- Fcos∅ = ma................. Equation 1
⇒ Where:
- F = Force
- ∅ = angle above the horizontal
- m = mass of the wagon
- a = acceleration of the wagon
⇒ make a the subject of equation 1
- a = Fcos∅/m..................... Equation 2
From the question,
⇒ Given:
⇒ Substitute these values into equation 2
- a = 44(cos35°)/10
- a = 44(0.8191)/10
- a = 3.6 m/s²
Hence, The acceleration of the wagon along the ground is 3.6 m/s²
