Question

Calculate the acceleration produced in a body of mass fo 50g when acted upon by a force of 20 N?

Answer 1

Given,
F=20N
m=50g=0.050kg
a=?

F=ma
20=0.050*a
20/0.05=a
a=400m/s^2

Answer 2

Formula :

Force = mass × acceleration

Given :

Force = 20 N

Mass = 50 g

         = 0.05 kg

Force = m a

= > 20 N = 0.05 kg × a

= > a = 20 N / 0.05 kg

= > a = 400 m/s²

ANSWER:

The acceleration is 400 m/s²
