Answer :
Fnet = mass × acceleration
Fpush (force by the boys) - 40 = (30)(1.5)
Fpush - 40 = 45
Fpush = 45 + 40
Fpush = 85 N
So, the boys are exerting a force of 85 N on the bicycle.
Fpush (force by the boys) - 40 = (30)(1.5)
Fpush - 40 = 45
Fpush = 45 + 40
Fpush = 85 N
So, the boys are exerting a force of 85 N on the bicycle.
