Two students have fitted their scooters with the same engine. Student A and his
scooter have a combined mass of 127.5 kg and a maximum acceleration of
2.40 m/s². Student B has a maximum acceleration of 1.70 m/s on her scooter.
Show that the combined mass of student B and her scooter is 120 kg
You may assume that the frictional forces acting on each scooter are negligible.

The force exerted by student A with his scooter is 306 N and that of student B is 204 N.

Force applied by each student

The force exerted by each student is calculated from Newton's second law of motion.

F = ma

where;

  • m is mass
  • a is acceleration

F(A) = 127.5 x 2.4

F(A) = 306 N

F(B) = 120 x 1.7

F(B) = 204 N

Thus, the force exerted by student A with his scooter is 306 N and that of student B is 204 N.
