Question

a force of 5N acts on a body of mass 10 kg . calculate the acceleration produced?

Answer 1

f=m/a
So, a=F/m

Mass=10 kg
Force=5N

So, 
a=F/m
a=5/10
a=1/2
a=0.5m/s²

Answer 2

Answer:

The acceleration produced is 0.5m/s².

Explanation:

We will use the following relation between force, mass, and acceleration of the body. Which is given as,

$F=Ma$          (1)

Where,

F=force acting on a body

M=mass of the body

a=acceleration produced by the motion of the moving body

From the question we have,

F=5N

M=10kg

By substituting the required values in equation (1) we get;

$5=10\times a$

$a=\frac{5}{10} =\frac{1}{2}$

$a=0.5m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration produced on the body is 0.5m/s².
