Question

2) Hunter is pulling on his little red wagon to the west with a force of 125N. Luke doesn’t want him to take the wagon so he is pulling in the opposite direction with a force of 75N. If the wagon has a mass of 15kg, what is the wagon’s acceleration? *
Your answer

Answer 1

U hv to usr the equation
F=ma

Answer 2

Acceleration a=?

Answer 3

Both F nd m r given

Answer 4

U hv 2 forces

Answer 5

Forces r opposite in direction

Answer 6

So resultant force F=125-75=?

Answer 7

This resultant force acting along west

Answer 8

So acceleration will b along west

Answer 9

hint:
on the block are acting two forces, which have the same direction, and opposite orientation:

so the net force has the subsequent magnitude:
\(R=F-P=125-75=...newtons\)
and the requested acceleration, has the subsequent magnitude \(a\):
\[a = \frac{R}{m} = \frac{R}{{15}} = ...m/{\sec ^2}\]
