To find the acceleration of the ball, we can rearrange the formula F = ma to solve for a.
a = F/m
Plugging in the given values:
a = 0.90 N / 0.350 kg
a = 2.57 m/s^2
Rounding to the nearest tenth, the acceleration of the ball is approximately 2.6 m/s^2.
Therefore, the correct answer is c) 2.6 m/s^2.
