Answer:
a = 5 [m/s²]
Explanation:
We know from Newton's second law that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
∑F = m*a
where:
F = total force = 50 [N]
m = mass = 10 [kg]
a = acceleration [m/s²]
Now replacing:
[tex]a = \frac{F}{m} \\a=50/10\\a = 5 [m/s^{2} ][/tex]
