Two workers push on a wooden crate. One worker push with a force of 543 N and the other with a force of 333 N. The mass of the wooden crate is 206 kg. What is the acceleration of the crate?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]a=4.2524\ m.s^{-2}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

two workers push a crate.

  • Force by first worker, [tex]F_1=543\ N[/tex]
  • force by second worker, [tex]F_2=333\ N[/tex]
  • mass of crate, [tex]m=206\ kg[/tex]

(Assuming that both the workers push in the same direction.)

We know that,

Acceleration is given as:

[tex]a=\frac{F}{m}[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{F_1+F_2}{m}[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{543+333}{206}[/tex]

[tex]a=4.2524\ m.s^{-2}[/tex]
