Answer:
a force of acts on a body of mass 50 kg for 10 sec when the first of acting on the body the body covers 80 and in the next 10 second
Answer:
a = 0.4 ms⁻²
Explanation:
• First calculate the resultant force on the body:
If we consider upwards to be the positive direction and downwards to be the negative direction, then the resultant force will be:
F = +100 + (-80)
= +20 N
The resultant force is positive, so it will act upwards.
• Next calculate the acceleration:
F = ma
a = F/m
a = 20/ 50
a = 0.4 ms⁻²
As the force is acting upwards, the acceleration will also be upwards.
