Answer:

Acceleration, a = 16.667m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force = 500N

Mass = 30kg

To find the acceleration;

Force is given by the multiplication of mass and acceleration.

Mathematically, Force is;

[tex] F = ma[/tex]

Where;

  • F represents force.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • a represents acceleration.

Making acceleration (a) the subject, we have;

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

Substituting into the equation;

[tex]Acceleration (a) = \frac{500}{30}[/tex]

Acceleration, a = 16.667m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the boulder is 16.667m/s²
