Question

An object of mass 30 kg is falling in air and experiences a force due to air resistance of 50 newtons.
Determine the net force acting on the object and
calculate the acceleration of the object.

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:Derivation of Newton's second law of motion

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of a system is directly proportional to and in the same direction as the net external force acting on the system, and inversely proportional to its mass. ... The object experiences an acceleration due to gravity g: w = mg.
