Question

Luis and Aisha conducted an experiment. They exerted different forces on four objects. Their results are shown in the table.

A 3-column table with 4 rows. The first column labeled Object has entries 1, 2, 3, 4. The second column labeled Mass has entries 10 kilograms, 100 grams, 10 grams, 1 kilogram. The third column labeled Force (Newtons) has entries 4 Newtons, 20 Newtons, 4 Newtons, 20 Newtons.
Based on the data, which object has the greatest acceleration?

Object 1
Object 2
Object 3
Object 4

Answer 1

$\huge{\underline{\color{maroon}{\textsf{\textbf{~~~Answer}}}}}$

We know,

We know, Acceleration = force/mass

1st object = 4 / 10000 = 0.0004m/s²

2nd object = 20/ 100 = 0.2m/s²

3rd object = 4/10 = 0.4m/s²

4th object = 20/1000 = 0.02m/s²

_____________________________

Therefore 3rd object has the greatest acceleration!
