Answer:
11.11m/s^2
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
mass m= 36kg
scale reading F= 400N
Step two:
we know that from newtons first law, F=ma
substitute the given data into the expression for F we have
400=36*a
divide both sides by 36 we have
400/36=a
a=11.11 m/s^2
hence the magnitude of the acceleration is 11.11m/s^2
