An object with a mass 10kg moves at a constant velocity of 10m/s. A constant force then acts for 4second on the object and gives it a speed of 2m/s in opposite direction. The acceleration produced is:

Solution
The correct option is B−3m/sec2 Initial velocity of the object V1=10m/s
Final velocity of object V2=−2m/s
Time for which the force acts t=4s
Thus acceleration of the object a=V2−V1t=−2−104=−3m/s2
