The water skier has a mass of 68 kg. Calculate the resultant force acting on the water skier while accelerating.

Asked by earika

Answer (3)

We calculated the resultant force acting on a water skier with mass 68 kg and acceleration 2.1 m/s² using Newton's second law of motion. The force was found to be 142.8 N. ;

To calculate the resultant force acting on the water skier while accelerating , we use the formula resultant force = mass x acceleration. In this case, the net force is given as 115 N and the skier's mass is 68 kg. ;

The resultant force acting on a water skier with a mass of 68 kg and an assumed acceleration of 2.1 m/s² is calculated to be 142.8 N using Newton's second law of motion. If different values for acceleration are provided, the calculation can be adjusted. This result assumes there are no opposing forces such as friction involved.
