Problem: An ice hockey player hits a puck of mass 0.15 kilograms with a force of 100 newtons in the horizontal direction. What is the acceleration produced by the force in the horizontal direction? Part A: Enter the variable symbol of the quantity you need to solve for. Use your keyboard and the keypad to enter your answer. Then click Done.

Respuesta :

The acceleration produced in a body is always in the direction of the resultant force acting on the body. Therefore, we may determine the horizontal acceleration using the horizontal force applied. To do this, we may apply the mathematical form of Newton's second law:

Force = mass * acceleration
acceleration = force / mass

Substituting the values,
a = 100 / 0.15
a = 666.7 m/s²

The acceleration of the hockey puck is 670 m/s²

Answer:

It's a with the little x for all my plato users

and part b would be F with the little x =ma with the little x

and part c would be a with the little x = F with the little x over m

and part d would be a little x = 100 over 0.15
