Answer:
2.6 m/s²
Explanation:
m = mass of the object = 7.8 kg
Consider the right direction as positive and left direction as negative
F = horizontal applied force towards right = 50 N
f = frictional force acting towards left = - 30 N
a = acceleration
Force equation for the motion of the object is given as
F + f = ma
50 - 30 = (7.8) a
a = 2.6 m/s²
