Rodolfo Rocha · Answer 1

the acceleration is 130.3m/s²

Explanation:

Given data

Force F = 18.9N

Mass of ball m = 0.145kg

Acceleration a=?

Applying the Newton's second law of motion

"The rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the external force".

F=ma

a = F/m

a = 18.9/0.142

a = 130.3m/s²
