If a net horizontal force of 130 N is applied to a person with mass 60.0 kg who is resting on the edge of a swimming pool, what horizontal acceleration is produced?

rvc (rvc):

Newton's Second law \(\rm {F_{net}=m_T \cdot~a}\) a : acceleration F : Net force applied m : total mass so here you can find acceleration by : \[\rm a=\frac{ F_{Net} }{ m_T }\]

that's right! @rvc
