A 5 kg block is pulled across a table by a horizontal force of 4O N with a frictional force ot 8N pOsing the motion. Calculate the acceleration of the oject. 12 An ahia iddt

By Newton's 2nd law, m*a=sum_of_forces where m is the mass and a the acceleration. Here there are two forces in opposed directions.

Thus 5*a=40-8=32 therefore a=32/5=6.4m^s/2

the correct option is c.

isotopes refers to different forms of the same element with the same atomic number but different mass number as a result of difference in their neutron numbers. isotopes have different relative atomic mass but share the same chemical properties.
