was the acceleration of Odysseus' ship if its mass
was 900,000 kg and it moves across the water with
a force of 300,000 N?

Answer: 0.33 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of Odysseus' ship as it moves across the water from Troy to Ithaca is 0.33m/s²

Given the data in the question;

  • Mass of Odysseus' ship; [tex]m= 900000kg[/tex]
  • Force with which Odysseus' ship moves across the water; [tex]F = 300000N[/tex]
  • Acceleration; [tex]a = ?[/tex]

To determine the acceleration of the ship, We the equation from Newton's Second Law of Motion:

[tex]F = m\ *\ a[/tex]

Where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Lets make acceleration ''a'', the subject of the formula

[tex]a = \frac{F}{m}[/tex]

Now, we substitute our given values into the equation

[tex]a = \frac{300000N}{900000kg}[/tex]

We know that, A newton is defined as [tex]1 kg.m/s^2[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{300000 kg.m/s^2}{900000kg} \\\\a = 0.33m/s^2[/tex]

Therefore, the acceleration of Odysseus' ship as it moves across the water from Troy to Ithaca is 0.33m/s²
