Resultant force F= sqrt (16^2+12^2) => F=20N So F=ma => a=F/m=20/200 => a=0.1 ms-2

Total magnitude of Force is {(16)^2 + (12)^2}^1/2 = (256 + 144)^1/2=20 N Now,Force = Mass x Acceleration==>Acceleration = Force/Mass =20/200 = 0.1 m/sec^2

16N and 12N are acting in mutually perpendicular direction. So resultant force = â??(16² + 12²) = â??256+144 = â??400 = 20N mass of body = 200 kg acceleration = net force/mass = 20/200 = 0.1 m/s².

Easy, Qualitative and Tricky Mathematician

Simple take resultant force of 16N and 12N and it will become 20N Then a= F/m so 20N / 200kg ==0.1 N/kg

F=ma , net force is 16-12=4N then 4N=200kg*a , so a=.002 m/s2

If force is acting on a moving body perpendicular to the direction of motion, then what will be its effect on the speed and direction of the body?
The magnitude of velocity shall decrease and direction shall be same till it comes to rest, afterwards it shall move in direction of force with acceleration due to the applied force.
