A 60 N net force is applied to a 12 kg box.
What is the acceleration of the box?
A 5 m/s2
6 48 m/s2
© 72 m/s2
D 720 m/s2

Respuesta :

Answer:D

Explanation:

F = Mass times acceleration

The acceleration of the box will be "5 m/s²".

Force and acceleration

A constant mass particle accelerates throughout proportional towards the force supplied. Since a similar force would be applied to two substances of differing masses, the heavier item accelerates faster than that of the lightweight component.

According to the question,

Mass of box, m = 12 kg

Applied force, f = 60 N

We know the formula,

→ Force = Mass × Acceleration

or,

Acceleration (a) = [tex]\frac{Force(f)}{Mass(m)}[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

                               = [tex]\frac{60}{12}[/tex]

                               = 5 m/s²

Thus the above answer i.e., "Option A" is correct.
