The net force acting on the two (2) kids is equal to 180 Newton.
Given the following data:
To determine the net force acting on the two (2) kids:
First of all, we would calculate the total mass of the two (2) kids:
[tex]Total\;mass = 50+40[/tex]
Total mass = 90 kg.
In this exercise, you're required to calculate the magnitude of the net force that is acting on these two (2) kids running down the hall. Thus, we would apply Newton's Second Law of Motion.
Mathematically, Newton's Second Law of Motion is given by this formula;
[tex]Net\;force = mass \times acceleration[/tex]
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
[tex]Net\;force = 90 \times 2[/tex]
Net force = 180 Newton.
