Question

What acceleration is produced in a mass of 1000 Kg by a force of 720N:

Answer 1

Answer

• Acceleration = 0.72 m/s²

Given

• A mass of 1000 Kg and a force of 720 N

To Find

• Acceleration produced

Formula Used

• Newton's second law of motion

• It states that acceleration produces when object ( mass ) is acting by a force

$\sf{\orange{\bigstar \;\; Force=Mass \times Acceleration}}\\\\\sf{\orange{\bigstar \;\; F=ma}}$

Solution

Mass , m = 1000 kg

Force , F = 720 N

Acceleration , a = ? m/s²

Apply formula .

$\implies \rm F=ma\\\\\implies \rm 720=1000 \times a\\\\\implies \rm 72=100a\\\\\implies \rm a=\dfrac{72}{100}\\\\\implies \rm a=\dfrac{36}{50}\\\\\implies \rm a=\dfrac{18}{25}\\\\\implies \rm a=0.72\ m/s^2$

More Info

• SI unit of Force is Newton
• SI unit of mass is kg
• SI unit of acceleration is m/s²

Answer 2

Given :

• Force is 720 N.
• Mass is 1000 kg.

To find :

• Acceleration

Formula used :

• Force = mass × acceleration [ F = ma ]

Where,

→ F stands for Force

→ M stands for Mass

→ A stands for Acceleration

___________...

Now according to the formula we put the values :

F = ma

→ 720 N = 1000 kg × a

→ a = 720 ÷ 1000

.°. a = 0.72 m/s²....
