Answer:
Acceleration = 3.5 [m/s^2]
Explanation:
We can solve this problem using Newton's second law, which states that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of the mass by the acceleration
F = 350 [N]
m = 100 [kg]
Using Newton's second law we have:
F = m*a
where:
F = force [N]
a = acceleration or desacceleration [m/s^2]
therefore:
a = 350/100
a = 3.5 [m/s^2]
