Stephen can push with 200N of force on a couch. If the couch has a mass of 20 kg, how much acceleration will the couch have?

10m/s^2

Explanation:

Force acting on couch = 200N

Mass of couch = 20 kg

Acceleration of the couch = ?

Recall that force is the product of the mass of an object by the acceleration by which it moves.

i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration

200N = 20kg x Acceleration

Acceleration = 200N/20kg

Acceleration = 10m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the couch is 10m/s^2

the closer the planet is to the sun, the larger the gravity
