Question

An object of mass 16kg is moving with an acceleration of 3m/s^2.Calculate the applied force, if the same force is applied on an object of mass 24kg, how much will be the acceleration.?

Answer 1

Hello friend
-------------------

=) Given

Mass,m= 16kg
Acceleration,a = 3m/s^2

So according to your questions first we have to find the force.

We know that,

Force= mass * acceleration

F = ma

hence,

F = 16*3

F = 48N.

Now we got the Value of force.

if same force is applied on an object of mass = 24kg. then what will be the acceleration.

So,by using the same formula.

F = ma

where f = 48,m = 24 , a= ?

48 = 24* a

a = 48/24

a = 2m/s^2.

I hope this will helps you.

Thanks.
