Answer: 3m/s^2
Explanation:
Net force = 12N
Mass of jug = 4kg
Acceleration of the jug = ?
Recall that force is the product of the mass of an object by the acceleration by which it moves.
i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration
12N = 4kg x Acceleration
Acceleration = 12N/4kg
Acceleration = 3m/s^2
Thus, the resulting acceleration of the jug is 3m/s^2
Answer:
Explanation:
Newton’s Second Law…
Force = Mass * Acceleration
12 = 4 * Acceleration
12/4 = 3 = Acceleration
