The forces acting on the object are 45 n and 60 n acting in the same direction. The friction force between the bag and the floor is 15n. What is the net fore acting on the bag? What is the acceleration of the bag?
To find the net force acting on the bag, we need to add up all the forces acting on it. In this case, we have two forces: 45 N and 60 N, both acting in the same direction.
To calculate the net force, we simply add the two forces together:
Net force = 45 N + 60 N
Net force = 105 N
So, the net force acting on the bag is 105 Newtons.
Now, let's calculate the acceleration of the bag using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.
The formula for Newton's second law is:
F = ma
Where:
F is the net force (105 N),
m is the mass of the object, and
a is the acceleration.
We can rearrange the formula to solve for acceleration:
a = F/m
To find the acceleration, we need to know the mass of the bag. Unfortunately, the given information does not include the mass. Without the mass, we cannot calculate the acceleration accurately.
Hence, we cannot determine the acceleration of the bag without knowing the mass.
