Question

1. check all the boxes in the top right. 4. ensure that there are two 50 kg boxes on the skateboard. you can move it by clicking and holding on the box and moving it in and out of the white box in the bottom left. to ensure it is on the skateboard just let go of the mouse when it is outside of the white box. 5. now click on the fast forward button until the applied force displays the desired amount of newtons. 6. click on the play button underneath the check boxes and observe 7. fill out the form according to your observations. if you ever make a mistake just restart. to restart click on the orange restart button. set the applied force to 50 newtons: if the mass is 50 kg * 2 (100 kg) and the force is 50 newtons what should the acceleration be? (do not press play yet) 0.5 m/s^2 10 n 1 m/s^2 1 kg

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Newton's second - law

$F = ma$, where $F$ is force, $m$ is mass, and $a$ is acceleration.

Step2: Rearrange the formula for acceleration

$a=\frac{F}{m}$.

Step3: Substitute given values

Given $F = 50\ N$ and $m=100\ kg$, then $a=\frac{50}{100}=0.5\ m/s^{2}$.

Answer:

A. $0.5\ m/s^{2}$
