What is the acceleration of a 30 kg object when 180 N of a force is applied to it?

A6.0 m/s2
B60 m/s2
C210 m/s2
D5,400 m/s2

Verified Answer :

We must know that \(F=ma\), where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the aceleration. Then:

\(F=ma\Longrightarrow 180=30a\iff a=\dfrac{180}{30}\iff\boxed{a=6~m/s^2}\\\\\text{The answer is A.}\)
