Question

Given that a load of mass 20kg is acted upon by a force of 60N,calculate the acceleration of the load

Answer 1

Answer:

Work it out!

We know that F=ma (don’t we?) so we can deduce that a = F/m

You know the force (F) and the mass (m) so get your calculator out if the numbers are too tricky to do the maths in your head.

And don’t forget to state the units when you give the answer - you’ll lose marks in your homework otherwise.
