Question

force of 10 N gives a mass m an acceleration of 5 m s–2 and

a mass M an acceleration of 15 ms–2

. If the two masses are

tied together, the acceleration will become

(A) 20 m s–2

(B) 10 m s–2

(C) 3.75 m s–2

(D) 2 m s–2​

Answer 1

Answer:

c) 3.75 m/s²

Explanation:

m= 10/5 = 2 kg

M = 10/15 = 2/3 kg

acceleration = 10 / ( 2 +2/3)

= (10 x 3 )/ 8

= 3.75 m/s²

Answer 2

Explanation:

f equals mass x acceleration
