Question

A force of 5newton acts horizontally on a body of weight 9.8 Newton. What is the acceleration produced in m s-2

Answer 1

weight = m*g
9.8 = m*9.8
m = 1 kg
F = m*a
5 = 1*a
a = 5 m/s-2

Answer 2

Hi, my friend.....
Here is your answer...

We know that
w = mg
As w = 9.8
g = 9.8 or we can take 10.

Now , 9.8 = m × 9.8
m = 1 kg N

Now, from Newton's 2nd law of motion we get

F =ma
5 = 1 ×a
a = 5 m per second.....

Hope it will help you.............
