Answer:
The acceleration of the object is 3 m/s2.
Explanation:
- The force on the object is acting along the four directions which are perpendicular to each other.
- Since the north and south directions are opposite to each other, the magnitude of the net force along north-south direction is (24-18)=6 N.
- Since the east and west directions are opposite to each other, the magnitude of the net force along east-west direction is (16-16)=0 N.
- Therefore the magnitude of the net force on the object is 6 N
- By Newton's second law, the force F on the object is given by the formula F=ma.
- Here m= 2kg, therefore 6 =(2)a which gives a = 3 m/s2.
