Question

force of 50 Newton exerted on a body of mass 2kg can

produce an acceleration of.. ( fill in blank)​

Answer 1

Answer:

F=ma

50=2xa

a=25.......

Answer 2

★ Mass of the body = 2kg

★ Force acted upon = 50N

★ Acceleration produced = unknown

According to Newton's second law:

F = dp/dt

[since, p= mv => dp = m.dv]

=> F = m.(dv/dt)

[since, dv/dt = acceleration = a]

=> F = m×a

50N = 2kg×(a)

=> a = 50/2 N/kg

=> a = 25 m/s^2

★ Hence, the acceleration produced by the body is 25m/s^2.
