Two shopping carts are pushed with the same amount of force. The shopping carts have the same mass. Shopping cart A is pushed with three times the force as shopping cart B. How does the force applied to the shopping carts affect their acceleration?

Shopping cart A accelerates three times as fast as shopping cart B.

Both shopping carts will accelerate at the same rate since their masses are the same.

Shopping cart B accelerates twice as fast as shopping cart A.

Shopping cart B accelerates three times as fast as shopping cart A.

Respuesta :

As per Newton's II law we know that

[tex]F = ma[/tex]

now for finding acceleration we can say

[tex]a = \frac{F}{m}[/tex]

now we have two carts A and B both having same mass

Cart B is pushed by force F while cart A is pushed by force 3F

so acceleration of both carts is given as

Cart A

[tex]a_A = \frac{3F}{m}[/tex]

Cart B

[tex]a_B = \frac{F}{m}[/tex]

so correct answer will be

Shopping cart A accelerates three times as fast as shopping cart B.


Answer: Shopping cart A accelerates three times as fast as shopping cart B.

Their force applies because shopping Cart A was pushed three times faster. So, it will go 3 times faster. Shopping cart A accelerates three times as fast as shopping cart B. is the answer.

Hope this helps!
