  • Calculating Acceleration: Solving for Acceleration Using Newton's Second Law
    You would use Newton's Second Law of Motion to find the acceleration:

    F = m * a

    Where:

    * F is the force (65 N)

    * m is the mass (10 kg)

    * a is the acceleration (what we want to find)

    To solve for acceleration (a), rearrange the formula:

    a = F / m

    Now plug in the values:

    a = 65 N / 10 kg

    a = 6.5 m/s²

    Therefore, the acceleration of the boulder is 6.5 m/s².
