Question

a man pushes a box of mass 50 kg with a force 18N. what will be acceleration of the box due to this force. what would be the acceleration if the mass were doubled

Answer 1

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion,

Force = Mass * Acceleration

18 = 50 * Acceleration

Acceleration = 9/25 m/s²



If mass would have been doubled then

a = 18/100

acceleration = 9/50 m/s².


Thank you.
