Question

What force would be needed to produce an acceleration of 4 m/s^2 on a ball of mass 6 kg

Answer 1

force = mass x acceleration

force = 6 x 4

force = 24 N

therefore a force of 24 N would be needed to produce an acceleration of 4 m/s^2 on a ball of mass 6 kg

hope this helps thank u mark me brainliest

Answer 2

Heya !!

This question is based upon Newton's second Law of motion.

Newton's second Law of Motion.

Newton's second law of motion states that the rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the force applied, and this change in momentum takes place in the direction of the applied force.

Expression for Newton's second Law of Motion.

Consider a body of mass ‘m’ moving with velocity v.

The linear momentum of a body is given by:

p = mv

Now According to Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion:,

Force is directly proportional to rate of change of momentum, that is

F ∝ dp/dt

F  = k dp/dt , where k is the constant of proportionality and its value is 1.

F = 1 * d(mv)/dt

F = md(v)/dt

F = ma

Q. What force would be needed to produce an acceleration of 4 m/s^2 on a ball of mass 6 kg?

Here,

• Mass of ball, m = 6kg
• Acceleration, a = 4m/s²
• Force, F = ?

Since, F = ma, F = 6*4 = 24 N

Hope it helps !!
