Question

Your shopping cart has a mass of 65 kg. In order to accelerate the shopping cart down the aisle a .3m/s2, what force would you need to use or apply to the cart?

Answer 1

Answer:

hi

your answer is here !

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of shopping cart, m = 65 kg

Required Acceleration, a = 0.3 m/s²

We have to find,

Force exerted on the cart, F

Now, we know that,

Force = the product of an object's mass and it's acceleration, i.e.,

F = ma

So, assigning the value of "m" and "a" from the question, we get,

F = 65 \times 0.3

So, assigning the value of "m" and "a" from the question, we get,

So, assigning the value of "m" and "a" from the question, we get,F = 65 \times 0.3

So, assigning the value of "m" and "a" from the question, we get,F = 65 \times 0.3= > F = 19.5

So, assigning the value of "m" and "a" from the question, we get,F = 65 \times 0.3= > F = 19.5Hence, to accelerate a shopping cart of mass 65 kg down an aisle with an acceleration of 0.3 m/s², we will require a Force of 19.5 kgm/s² or 19.5 N.
