A construction worker pushes a wheelbarrow with a total mass of 50.0 kg. What is the acceleration of the wheelbarrow if the net force on it is 75N? For physical science

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.5m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the wheelbarrow = 50kg

Net force applied  = 75N

Unknown:

Acceleration of the barrow = ?

Solution:

From Newton's second law of motion, we know that:

       Force  = mass x acceleration

 Now insert the parameters and find the acceleration

       75  = 50 x acceleration

      Acceleration  = 1.5m/s²
