Determine the acceleration of the wheelchair if it is pushed with a force of 8N and the mass is 4 kg.
| May 17, 2021 | education
the force with which the wheelchair is pushed F = 8 H
stroller weight m = 4 kg
find: acceleration a -?
We find the acceleration of the wheelchair from the formula of Newton’s second law: the acceleration transferred to the body is directly proportional to the resultant force and inversely proportional to the mass of the body a = F / m
a = 8/4 = 2 m / s ^ 2
Answer: the wheelchair is pushed with an acceleration of 2 m / s ^ 2
