A) 100 kg

B) 20kg

C) 600 kg

D) 2500 kg​

Answer 1

$\huge\blue{\tt Correct \: Question :-}$

A net force of 500 newtons causes an object to accelerate at a rate of 5.0 m/s². What is the mass of the object ?

[A] 100 kg

[B] 20kg

[C] 600 kg

[D] 2500 kg

$\huge\orange{\tt Correct \: Option :-}$

$\implies$Option [A] 100 kg

$\huge\pink{\tt Given :-}$

• A net force of 500 newtons causes an object to accelerate at a rate of 5.0 m/s²

$\huge\green{\tt To \: Find :-}$

• Mass of the object

$\huge\gray{\tt Solution :-}$

We have,

• Force = 500 N
• Acceleration = 5.0 m/s² = 5 m/s²

We know that,

$\boxed{\sf Mass = \dfrac{Force}{Acceleration}}$

Substituting the values we get,

➠ Mass = 500/5

➠ Mass = 100 kg

∴ The mass of the object is 100 kg

Answer 2

$\sf\large\pink{\underbrace{Answer\implies Option-(A)}}}$

$\sf\large\underline\purple{Given:-}$

$\sf{\implies Acceleration\:_{(on\:object)}=5.0\:m/s^2}$

$\sf{\implies Force\: applied\:_{(on\: object)}=500N}$

$\sf\large\underline\purple{To\: Find:-}$

$\sf{\implies The\:mass\:of\:the\:object=?}$

$\sf\large\underline\purple{Solution:-}$

• To calculate the mass of an object in the given Question at first , we have to apply the formula. By applying formula we get the mass of an object. As you know that mass=force/acceleration. Here force means that when we pressure on an object to move from one place to another place we use force. Mass means that the weight of an object. Acceleration means that the rate of force which applied on an object.:-]

$\sf\large\underline\purple{Formula\:used:-}$

$\tt\green{\implies Mass=\dfrac{Force}{acceleration}}$

$\tt{\implies Mass=\dfrac{500}{5.0}}$

$\tt{\implies Mass=\dfrac{5000}{50}}$

$\tt\pink{\implies Mass=100\:kg}$

$\sf\large{Hence,}$

$\sf\blue{\implies The\:mass\:of\:the\:object=100\:kg}$

$\sf\large\underline\red{Some\: related\: formula:-}$

$\sf{\implies Force=Mass\times\: Acceleration}$

$\sf{\implies Acceleration=\dfrac{Force}{Mass}}$
