Explanation:
Newton's second law:
F = ma
5.20 N = (1.05 kg) a
a = 4.95 m/s²
Answer:
4.95 m/s/s
Explanation:
Upon neglecting air resistance, there are three forces acting upon the object. The up and downforce balance each other and the acceleration is caused by the applied force. The net force is 5.20 N, right (equal to the only rightward force - the applied force). So the acceleration of the object can be computed using Newton's second law.
a = Fnet / m = (5.20 N, right) / (1.05 kg) = 4.95 m/s/s, right
