derive the unit of force using the second law of motion. A force of 5N produces an acceleration of 24m/s-2 on a mass m2. what acceleration would the same force provide if both the masses are tied together .

Change in momentum = m(v-u)÷t
V-u /t is acceleration
Thus.
Force =mass×acceleration
=kgm/s×s=newton
V-u /t is acceleration
Thus.
Force =mass×acceleration
=kgm/s×s=newton

Suppose an object of mass, m is moving along a straight line with an initial velocity, u.
It is uniformly accelerated to velocity, v in time, t by the application of a constant force, F
throughout the time, t. The initial and final momentum of the object will be,
p1 = mu and p2 = mv respectively.
The change in momentum ∝ p2 – p1
The change in momentum∝ mv – mu
The change in momentum∝ m × (v – u).
The rate of change of momentum ∝ m × (v −u)/t
Or, the applied force,
F ∝m × (v −u)/t
F = km (v - u)/t
F = kma
Here a [a = (v – u)/t ] is the acceleration, which is the rate of change of velocity. The quantity, k is a constant of proportionality.The SI units of mass and acceleration are kg and m s-2 respectively. The unit of force is so chosen that the value of the constant, k becomes one. For this, one unit of force is
defined as the amount that produces an acceleration of 1 m s-2 in an object of 1 kg mass.
That is, 1 unit of force = k × (1 kg) × (1 m s-2).
Thus, the value of k becomes 1. and
F = ma which is the mathematical expression on the Newton's second law of motion.
