You push a wagon that has a mass of 12kg. If the net force on the wagon is 6N south, what is the wagon’s acceleration?

The equation you use is F=MA, where F is the force, M is the mass, and A is the acceleration. This means that if you substituted the values, you will get the answer 0.5 m/s/s

The wagon's acceleration will be "2 m/s²".

Force and Acceleration:

A push, as well as pull exerted by one item on another, is generally referred to as force.

Because acceleration would be the fluctuation of an item's speed, even when an object possesses mass and therefore is accelerating throughout dimension, this same object has been shown to generate a force.

According to the question,

Mass, m = 12 kg

Force, 6 N

As we know the formula,

→ Force = Mass × Acceleration

or,

→ F = MA

or,

Acceleration, A = [tex]\frac{F}{M}[/tex]

By substituting the values,

= [tex]\frac{12}{6}[/tex]

= [tex]2[/tex] m/s²

Thus the above answer is correct.
