Question

if a force of 29 newtons is exerted on a 5kg ball, what is the balls acceleration

Answer 1

Newton's 2nd law of motion:

                                   Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                   29 N  =  (5 kg) x (acceleration)

Divide each side
by  5 kg :                    29N / 5kg = acceleration

                                     5.8 m/s² = acceleration
