suppose twoo children push horizontally but in exactly opposite directions on a third child on a sled. The first child exters a force of 75N, the second a force of 98N, kinetic friction is 5.5N and the mass of the third child pus the sled is 21kg.Using a coordinate system where the second child is pushing in the postive direction, calculate the accelteration in m/s2.

A drone is being directed across a frictionless ice- covered lake. The mass of the drone is 1.50 kg, and its velocity is 3.00i m/s . After 10.0 s, the velocity is 9.00i+4.00j m/s . If a constant force in the horizontal direction is causing this change in motion, find (a) the components of the force and (b) the magnitude of the force.
