force acts on the wagon? A cart of weight 20 N is accelerated across a level surface at 0.15 m/s2. What net force acts on the wagon? (g = 9.8 m/s2)



1. 0.31 N

2. 5.2 N

3. 0.92 N

4. 4.5 N

5. 3.0 N

I need to know how to work the problem too, So can you explain it in detail please.
 
Weight(w),mass(m),gravitational acceleration(g),acceleration(a),force(f). Now see
given, w=20N
=>mg=20 =>m=20/g
again,f=ma(newtons 2nd law)=>f=(20X0.15)/9.8
=>0.306=>0.31N
