A24-n net force acts on a 8-kg rock. what is the acceleration of the rock?

You need to re-arrange the formula  F = ma which is Force = mass * acceleration.

If F = ma, then to find a you need to divide F by m.  So a = F / m or acceleration = Force / mass.

You then just input your values, so 24 / 8.

24 / 8 = 3.

Hopefully this helps (and it's right aha).

is the acceleration of the rock.

Explanation:

Force is defined product of mass of an object and acceleration by whihc object is moving.  

Force(F) =

Given mass of a rock = 8 kg

Acceleration of the rock = a = ?

Net force on the rock = F = 24 N

Putting in the values we get,

is the acceleration of the rock.

answer:

i havent taken the psat, but i have the sat, make sure to bring some snacks, because youre in there forever, 2 sharp number two pencils, an sat approved calculator, and maybe a jacket.   your phone and any books will be taken up, so don't try to bring them(but they will be given back at the end of the testing).   good luck!   i hope you do well!
