Answer:
Fr = 150 [N]
a = 5 [m/s²]
Explanation:
In order to find the resulting force, we must assume that the thrust force is positive to the right, while the friction force is negative to the left.
Now Newton's Second Law tells us that the sum of the forces or the resulting force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
F = m*a
Answer:
B. The mass of Mars is less than the mass of Earth.
Explanation:
Mass of an object is the constant anywhere in the universe.
The weight of an object is equal to the gravitational force acting on it.
Weight is given by
where
G = Gravitational constant
M = Mass of Planet
R = Radius of planet
m = Mass of object
g = Acceleration due to gravity
So weight of an object depends on the acceleration due to gravity on that planet. The acceleration due to gravity depends on the mass and radius of the planet.
The weight of the object is less on Mars because mars has less mass compared to Earth.
