Question

find the acceleration of a body , when 7.5 N force applied on a mass of 3.5 kg​

Answer 1

Answer:

2.14 m$s^{-2}$

Explanation:

Given: Force applied = 7.5 N

Mass = 3.5 kg

To find: Acceleration of the body

Solution:

Force applied on a body goes by the formula;

Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Putting values in the formula;

7.5 = 3.5× a

=> a = 7.5/3.5

= 15/7

= 2.14 m$s^{-2}$

Hence, acceleration of the body = 2.14m$s^{-2}$

Remarks:

Force is -:

• A push or pull of an object.
• A power (physical) possessed by a living or non-living being.
• An interaction between two bodies which tends to change or maintain motion of the body.
