Question

a force of 20n acts on a body of mass 300g. find the acceleration produced​

Answer 1

Answer:

a = F/m ( according to Newton's third law of motion)

a = 20/300

a = 1/15 m/s²

a = 0.0666....m/s²

Answer 2

Answer:

If a force of 20N acts on a body of mass 300g. Then the acceleration produced​ will be $66.6666\ m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion,

Force applied (F) will be the product of mass and acceleration.

Let 'm' be the mass of the object and 'v' be the velocity, then it can be expressed as,

$F = ma$   ...(1)

In the question, it is given that,

$m = 300g = 0.3\ kg$

$F = 20\ N$

By rearranging equation(1),

$a = \frac{F}{m}$

Substitute these values into the above equation,

$a = \frac{20}{0.3} = 66.6666\ m/s^{2}$
