Question

If a net force of 20 N accelerates a body at a rate of 2 m/s 2 , find the mass of the body.

Answer 1

Given,

• Force = 20N
• Acceleration = 2m/s²

To Find,

• The Mass of Body.

Solution,

Force = Mass × Acceleration

→ 20N = Mass × 2m/s²

→ 20N / 2m/s² = Mass

→ 10kg = Mass

Formula Used,

Force = Mass × Acceleration

Required Answer,

If,

A net force of 20N accelerates a body at a rate of 2m/s²

So,

The Mass = 10kg
