Given data:
* The weight of the object is 88 N.
* The force acting on the object is 100 N.
Solution:
The weight of the object in terms of the mass of the object is,
[tex]W=mg[/tex]where m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration due to gravity,
Substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 88=m\times9.8 \\ m=\frac{88}{9.8} \\ m=8.98\text{ kg} \end{gathered}[/tex]According to Newton's second law, the acceleration of the object in terms of the force acting on the object is,
[tex]F=ma[/tex]where a is the acceleration of the object,
Substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 100=8.98\times a \\ a=\frac{100}{8.98} \\ a=11.14ms^{-2} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, the acceleration of the object is 11.14 meters per second squared.
