Answer:
The acceleration of the wagon is 3 m/s².
To calculate the acceleration of the wagon, we use the formula below.
Formula:
F = ma............. Equation 1
Where:
F = horizontal Force
m = mass of the wagon
a = acceleration of the wagon.
make a the subject of the equation
a = F/m.............. Equation 2
From the question,
Given:
F = 30 N
m = 10 kg
Substitute these values into equation 2
a = 30/10
a = 3 m/s²
Hence, the acceleration of the wagon is 3 m/s².
