Question

If Tom kicks a 0.350 kg soccer ball with 0.90 N of force, what is the acceleration of the ball?

F= ma

a
3.15 m/s2

b
388.9 m/s2

c
0.003 m/s2

d
315 m/s2

e
0.32 m/s2

f
2.6 m/s2

To find the acceleration of the ball, we can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma).

Rearranging the formula to solve for acceleration, we have:
a = F/m

Substituting the given values, we have:
a = 0.90 N / 0.350 kg

Evaluating this expression, we find:
a = 2.57 m/s^2

Therefore, the correct answer is not among the given options.
