Question

Two forces are applied to a box at right angles. One force is 9N and the other is 13N. If the mass of the box is 16kg, what is the acceleration of the box in m/s/s? Answer is positive value to two decimal places. Need answer ASAP.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

In the absence of friction and assuming the two applied forces are parallel to the surface the box rests on.

a = F/m = (√(9² + 13²)) / 16 = 0.988211...

a = 0.99 m/s²
