A force of 21.0N acts on a mass 3.0kg in a medium whose resistance is 2.0N/kg. Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle.

Respuesta :

The magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is 5 m/s².

Acceleration of the man

The acceleration of the man is calculated as follows;

Resistive force on the man is calculated as follows;

Ff = 2 N/kg x 3 kg

Ff = 6 N

F - Ff = ma

21 - 6 = 3 a

15 = 3a

a = 15/3

a = 5 m/s²

Thus, the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle is 5 m/s².
