Question

A body of mass 5 kg is acted upon by two perpendicular forces 8 N and 6 N. The magnitude of acceleration of the body is (A) 1.5 m / s 2 (B) 2 m / s 2 (C) 3 m / s 2 (D) 7 m / s 2

F text net =√82+62 N =10 N a=(F text net /M)=(10 N /5 kg )=2 m / s 2

Q. A body of mass $5 k g$ is acted upon by two perpendicular forces $8 N$ and $6 N$ . The magnitude of acceleration of the body is

$1.5 m / s^{2}$

$2 m / s^{2}$

$3 m / s^{2}$

$7 m / s^{2}$

$F_{net} = 8^{2} + 6^{2} N = 10 N$
$a = \frac{F _{net}}{M} = \frac{10 N}{5 k g} = 2 m / s^{2}$
