Question #255584

What is the acceleration of bowling ball with a mass of 50.0 kg if a net force of 20 N is acting on it?

Expert's answer

Given:

"m=50\\:\\rm kg"

"F=20\\:\\rm N"

The Newton's second law says

"ma=F"

Hence, the acceleration of the ball

"a=\\frac{F}{m}=\\frac{20\\:\\rm N}{50\\:\\rm kg}=0.4\\:\\rm m\/s^2"
