A force of looN acts upwards on a mass of 50 kg, another of
80N acts on the Same Mass downwards. Calculate the acceleration?
of the body and in which direction will be th acceleration?

Answer:

a force of acts on a body of mass 50 kg for 10 sec when the first of acting on the body the body covers 80 and in the next 10 second

Answer:

a = 0.4 ms⁻²

Explanation:

• First calculate the resultant force on the body:

If we consider upwards to be the positive direction and downwards to be the negative direction, then the resultant force will be:


F = +100 + (-80)

  = +20 N

The resultant force is positive, so it will act upwards.

• Next calculate the acceleration:
F = ma

a = F/m

a = 20/ 50

a = 0.4 ms⁻²

As the force is acting upwards, the acceleration will also be upwards.
