Answer:
[tex]a = 2.56\ m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Mechanical Force
According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:
F = m.a
Where a is the acceleration of the object.
The object has a mass of m=430 g = 0.43 Kg and is pushed by a net force of F=1.1 N. To calculate the acceleration, we solve for a:
[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{F}{m}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle a=\frac{1.1}{0.43}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{a = 2.56\ m/s^2}[/tex]
