Question

a force of 5 n acts horizontally on a body of weight 9.8 Newton. What is the acceleration in Ms^_2

Answer 1

Weight = mg = 9.8 Newton ( Given)

Therefore mass will be m = 9.8/g = 9.8/9.8 = 1 kg

Now for acceleration,

F = m a
5 = (1)(a)
Thus,
a = 5 metre per second square

"Thanks"

Answer 2

Given:Force =5N , Mass=9.8 =approx.1kg

To find: Acceleration=?

Formula: Force =mass x acceleration

Solution:
Force= mass x acceleration

Acceleration= Force/mass

Acceleration= 5/1

Acceleration=5 ms^2.

Hope it will help you.
Have a great life :)
