5 Forces

A student carries out an experiment to investigate the relationship between the acceleration of a trolley and the resultant force acting on it.

a.

Write down the equation that links acceleration ( $a$ ), mass ( $m$ ), and resultant force ( $F$ ).

[1]

b.

In one test, the resultant force on the trolley was $N0.525\text{ N}$ and the mass of the trolley was $kg0.80\text{ kg}$ .

Calculate the acceleration of the trolley. Give your answer to 2 significant figures.
