A force causes an acceleration of $10 m / s^{2}$ in a mass 500 g. What acceleration will be caused by the same force in a body of mass 5 kg.

Open in App

Solution

We know that, $F = m a$

500 g = 0.5 kg

Now, $m_{1} a_{1} = m_{2} a_{2} \Rightarrow 0.5 \times 10 = 5 a_{2} \Rightarrow a_{2} = 1 m / s^{2}$

We know that, F=ma 500 g = 0.5 kg Now, m1a1=m2a2⇒0.5×10=5a2⇒a2=1 m/s2

We know that, $F = m a$

500 g = 0.5 kg

Now, $m_{1} a_{1} = m_{2} a_{2} \Rightarrow 0.5 \times 10 = 5 a_{2} \Rightarrow a_{2} = 1 m / s^{2}$
