Question

A boy can accelerate at 1.00m/s2 over a short distance. If the boy were to
take an energy
pill and suddenly have the ability to accelerate at 5.6m/s2, then how would
his new energy‐
pill‐force compare to his earlier force? if the boy's earlier force was 45N, what is the size of his energy‐pill‐force?

Answer 1

Answer:

First, let's recall Newton's Second Law. Mathematically, it is modeled as

F=m⋅a

where m is the boy's mass and a is the boy's acceleration.

What can we observe about the boy's force if we hold mass constant but increase acceleration?
