Question

A 10N force applied on a body to produce in it an acceleration of 1m/s2 . The mass of the body is– (a)15 kg, (b) 20 kg, (c) 10 kg,(d) 5 kg​

Answer 1

Provided that:

• Force = 10 N
• Acceleration = 1 m/s²

To calculate:

• The mass of the body

Solution:

• The mass of the body = 10 kg

Using concept:

• Force formula

Using formula:

• F = ma

Where, F denotes force, m denotes mass and a denotes acceleration

Required solution:

→ Force = Mass × Acceleration

→ F = m × a

→ F = ma

→ 10 = m × 1

→ 10/1 = m

→ 10 = m

→ m = 10 kg

→ Mass = 10 kg

• Therefore, mass of the body is 10 kilograms henceforth, option c) is absolutely correct! $\:$

Answer 2

Answer:

(c)10kg

Explanation:

given:

Force = mass × acceleration

Force=10N

Mass= ??

Acceleration =1m/s2

10 = mass × 1

10/1 = mass

Mass = 10 kg
