What acceleration will you give to a 24.3 kg box if you push it with a force of 85.5 N?

Heya!!

For calculate aceleration, lets applicate second law of Newton:

                                                 Δ   Being   Δ

                                             F = Force = 85,5 N

                                            m = Mass = 24,3 kg

                                             a = Aceleration = ?

⇒ Let's replace according the formula and clear "a":

⇒ Resolving

Result:

The aceleration is 3,41 meters per second squared (m/s²)

Good Luck!!

can be answered using momentum.

momentum = p

p1= mass1 * velocity1

p1 = p2

therefore

p1 = 6kg * 4m/s

p1 = 24kgm/s

p2=m2 * v2

24 kgm/s = 7kg * v2

v2 = 24 kgm/s / 7kg

v2= 3.42 m/s
