Question

Eli and Andy want to find out which of the two is stronger. Eli pushes a table with a force of 120 newtons while Andy pushes the table from the opposite side with a force of 125 newtons. Ignoring the masses of Eli and Andy, what is the resultant acceleration of the table if its mass is 10.0 kilograms?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5 m/s²

Explanation:

Net Force = Mass * Acceleration

125 - 120 = 10 * Acceleration

5 = 10 * Acceleration

Acceleration = 0.5m/s²

Thank you.
