Answer:
[tex]7 m/s^{2}[/tex]
Explanation:
From the fundamental equation of force
F=ma where F is the applied force, m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration
Making a the subject of the formula then we obtain
[tex]a=\frac {F}{m}[/tex]
Substituting 78.2 N for F and 11.17 Kg for m then we obtain
[tex]a=\frac {78.2}{11.17}=7.000895255\approx 7 m/s^{2}[/tex]
