Answer:
F = m a, a = 0.3 m / s²
this acceleration points in the direction of the unbalanced force
Explanation:
In this problem we must use Newton's second law. Let's fix a reference system with the x axis parallel to the surface and the y axis perpendicular
Y axis y
N-W = 0
N = W = mg
X axis
∑ F = m a
F = m a
we substitute
150 = m a
To find an acceleration value, the mass of the car must be known, if the mass is m = 500 kg
a = 150/500
a = 0.3 m / s²
this acceleration points in the direction of the unbalanced force
