Question

Find the acceleration produced
by a force of 100 N in a mass of
50 kg.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given:-

Mass of the object =m=50kg

Force Applied on the object=F=100N

To find:-

Acceleration produced =a

Solution:-

According to Newton 's second law of motion

${\boxed{\sf Force_{(F)}=Mass_{(m)}\times Acceleration_{(a)}}}$

• Substitute the values

${:}\longrightarrow\sf 100=50a$

${:}\longrightarrow\sf 50a=100$

${:}\longrightarrow\sf a=\dfrac {100}{50}$

${:}\longrightarrow\sf a=2m/s^2$

$\therefore{\underline{\color {teal}{\sf{Acceleration\:of\:the\:body\:is\:2m/s^2.}}}}$

Force:-

A push or pull on a object by which the motion of object changes when it applied is called force.

Mass:-

The quatative measure of interia is called mass.

Acceleration:-

The rate of change in velocity is known as acceleration .

if

uniform velocity =u

final velocity =v

Then

${:}\longrightarrow{\boxed{\sf Acceleration =\dfrac {v-u}{t}}}$

Answer 2

Given :-

Force applied on the object = 100 N

Mass of the object = 50 kg

Solution :-

As We know ,

Force = Mass * Acceleration

[ Force is simply a push or pull which when applied on object it changes the motion of that object ]

[ Mass is the quatiative measure of inertia ]

[ Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity A = v - u / t ]

[ u stands for initial velocity and v stands for final velocity ]

Here ,

Mass = 50kg , Acceleration = ?

Force = 100 N

Let the value of acceleration be x

Therefore ,

100 = 50 * x

x = 100/ 50

x = 2

Hence , The acceleration is

2 m/s^2 $.$
