A force of 5 N accelerates an object. The object’s mass is 50 g. What is the acceleration of the object? (Formula: F=ma)

Respuesta :

F = m a

a = F / m

50 g = 0.5 kg.

a = 5 / 0.5 = 10 m/s^2.

Answer : The acceleration of the object is, [tex]100m/s^2[/tex]

Solution : Given,

Force on an object = 5 N = [tex]5Kg\text{ m }/s^2[/tex]

Mass of an object = 50 g = 0.05 Kg         (1 Kg = 1000 g)

Formula used :

[tex]F=m\times a[/tex]

where,

F = force applied on an object

m = mass of an object

a = acceleration of an object

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the acceleration of an object.

[tex]5Kg\text{ m }/s^2=(0.05Kg)\times a[/tex]

[tex]a=100m/s^2[/tex]

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is, [tex]100m/s^2[/tex]
