Question

A 6.5 kg model rocket produces 75 N of upward thrust as it shoots upward from the launchpad. What is it's acceleration in m/s2?

Answer 1

Hello!

$\large\boxed{a = 11.54 m/s^{2}}$

Use the formula F = m · a to solve:

F = Force (N)

m = mass (kg)

a = acceleration (m /s²)

75 = 6.5a

a ≈ 11.54 m/s²
