What acceleration is produced by a force of `5N` acting on a body of mass `20kg`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `F=5N,m=20kg,a=?`
From `F=ma, a=F/m=5/20=0.25m//s^(2)`

Find the acceleration produced by a force of 5 N acting on a mass of 1 kg ?

The acceleration produced by a force of 5 N acting on a mass of 20 kg in m/ s^(2) is :

Assertion : The acceleration produced by a force in the motion of a body depends only upon its mass. Reason : Larger is the mass of the body, lesser will be the acceleration produced.

For how long should a force of 100 N act on a body of mass 20kg so that it aquires a velocity of 100m//s ?
