Question

A force causes an acceleration of 10 m s^-2 in a body of mass 500 g. What acceleration will be caused by the same force in a body of mass 5 kg ?

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

As we know, Force (f) = mass (m) x acceleration (a) Given, m = 500 g Converting g to kg, 1000 g = 1 kg 500 g = () x 500 kg 100 g = 0.5 Kg Hence, m = 0.5 Kg a = 10 m s ^-2 Substituting the values in the formula above we get, Hence, Magnitude of force = 5 N If, m = 5 Kg , f = 5 N Substituting the values in the formula above we get, Hence, a = 1 m s ^-2
