Question

suppose a ball of mass 0.60 kg is hit with a force of 12 N. What will be it's acceleration?

Answer 1

Answer:

As, Force,F = 12 N

mass,m = 0.6 Kg

Now, F = m ×a

or, a = F/m = 12/0.6 = 20 m/s^2

Answer 2

Given,

Mass of a ball = 0.60 kg

Amount of force = 12 N

To find,

The amount of acceleration.

Solution,

We can simply solve this numerical problem by using the following process.

Here, we have to use the mathematical relationship between mass, force and acceleration. Which is -

Force = Mass × Acceleration

Thus,

12 = 0.60 × Acceleration

0.60 × Acceleration = 12 (putting the given values)

Acceleration = 12/0.60 = 20 m/s²

[This will be considered as the final result. And, the SI unit of acceleration (m/s²) is used, because all the other physical quantities are also initially given in SI units.]

Hence, its acceleration will be 20 m/s²
