A 90N force towards postive x-axis, A 50N force towards negative x-axis applied on 5kg object. Find:- A) the net force on the object and B) the acceleration of the object​

Answer:

a. Net force = 40 Newton.

b. Acceleration = 8m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force on postive x-axis = 90N

Force on negative x-axis = 50N

Mass = 5kg

a. To find the net force;

Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.

The net force is equal to the difference between the two forces applied because they are acting in opposite directions.

Net force = 90 - 50

Net force = 40N

b. To find the acceleration;

Acceleration = net force/mass

Acceleration = 40/5

Acceleration = 8m/s²
