Applying a force of 30 N on an object produces an acceleration of 2 m/s2
. Find force
Answers
Answer:
Correct Question
Applying a force of 30 N on an object produces an acceleration of 2 m/s2Find mass
Given
Force = 30 N
acceleration= 2m/sec²
To find
mass of the body= ?
solution
➠According to Newton's second law of motion
where
- f= force
- m=mass
- a= acceleration
Now substitute the values in the above formula
⇝mass = force /acceleration
⇝ mass = 30/ 2
⇝ mass = 15 kg
✿so if 30 N of force is applied on a body of mass 15 kg then it will move with the Acceleration of 2m/sec².

Correct Question :
Applying a force of 30N on an object produces an acceleration of 2m/s². Calculate mass of the body.
Solution :
Given that,
- Applied force = 30N
- Acceleration = 2 m/s²
We are asked to find mass of the body.
❖ As per newton's second law of motion, force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration.
Mathematically, F = m a
- F denotes force
- m denotes mass
- a denotes acceleration
By substituting the given values;
➙ F = m a
➙ 30 = m × 2
➙ m = 30/2
➙ m = 15 kg
Knowledge BoosteR :
- Force is a polar vector as it has a point of application.
- Force can be classified as positive and negative.
- A positive for e represents repulsion and a negative force represents attraction.
- SI unit of force : N
- It has both magnitude as well as direction
