Answer:
F₂ = 12 N
Explanation:
Resultant force = 60 N
Initial acceleration, a = 10 m/s²
We need to find the force required to give the wagon an acceleration of 2 m/s².
Since, F = ma
[tex]\dfrac{F_1}{F_2}=\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}\\\\\dfrac{60}{F_2}=\dfrac{10}{2}\\\\\dfrac{60}{F_2}=5\\\\F_2=12\ N[/tex]
Hence, the new required force is 12 N.
