Question

A force of 50 N is applied to an object with
a mass of 0.5 kg. Calculate the
acceleration of the object.​

Answer 1

Given :

• Mass of an object, m = 0.5 kg

• Force applied to an object, F = 50 N

To find :

• Acceleration of the object, a

According to the question,

By using the formula F = ma we will find acceleration of the object.

➞ Force = Mass × Acceleration

Or,

➞ F = ma

➞ 50 = 0.5 × a

➞ 50 ÷ 0.5 = a

➞ 100 = a

So,the acceleration of the object is 100 m/s².

_______________________________

Acceleration :-

The rate of change of velocity with time is known as acceleration.

• SI unit is m/s².
• It is vector quantity.
• Formula of acceleration, a = v - u/t
• Negativeacceleration is also known as retardation.

Where,

1. v = Final velocity
2. u = Initial velocity
3. a = Acceleration
4. t = Time

Answer 2

Answer:

$\large{\red{\bold{\underline{GIven :-}}}}$

• A force of 50 N is applied to an object with a mass of 0.5 kg.

$\large{\red{\bold{\underline{To\: Find :-}}}}$

• What is the acceleration of the object.

$\large{\red{\bold{\underline{Formula\: Required :-}}}}$

✠ F = ma ✠

【 where, F = Force, m = Mass, a = Acceleration 】

$\large{\red{\bold{\underline{Solution :-}}}}$

Given in the question :

• Mass = 0.5 kg
• Force = 50 N

ATQ,

↪ 50 = 0.5 × a

↪ $\dfrac{50}{0.5}$ = a

↪ 100 = a

➡ a = 100 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 100 m/s².
