Question

An object accelerates 18.4 m/s2 when a force of 4.6 newtons is applied to it. What is the mass of the object?

Answer 1

$\huge{\mathbb{\red{ANSWER:-}}}$

For a object :-

Given :-

$\sf{acceleration \: (a) = 18.4 \: m/s^{2}}$

$\sf{applied \: force \: (F) = 4.6 \: Newton}$

To Find :-

$\sf{what's \: the \: mass \: of \: the \: object \: ?}$

Usable Formula :-

$\sf\boxed{Force = mass\times acceleration}$

Solution :-

$\sf{On \: using \: the \: formula -}$

$\sf{F = ma}$

$\sf{m =\dfrac{F}{a}}$

$\sf{m =\dfrac{4.6}{18.4}}$

$\sf{m =\dfrac{46}{184}}$

$\sf{m =\dfrac{46}{46\times 4}}$

$\sf{m =\dfrac{1}{4}}$

$\sf{m = 0.25 \: kg}$

$\sf{m = 250 \: gm}$
