The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the mass of the body given the force vector and the acceleration. We will use Newton's second law of motion, which states that: \[ \vec{F} = m \cdot \vec{a} \] Where: - \( \vec{F} \) is the force vector, - \( m \) is the mass, - \( \vec{a} \) is the acceleration vector. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Force Vector**: The force vector is given as: \[ \vec{F} = 6\hat{i} - 8\hat{j} + 10\hat{k} \] 2. **Calculate the Magnitude of the Force**: The magnitude of the force vector \( \vec{F} \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ |\vec{F}| = \sqrt{(F_x)^2 + (F_y)^2 + (F_z)^2} \] Where \( F_x = 6 \), \( F_y = -8 \), and \( F_z = 10 \). Substituting the values: \[ |\vec{F}| = \sqrt{(6)^2 + (-8)^2 + (10)^2} = \sqrt{36 + 64 + 100} = \sqrt{200} \] Simplifying further: \[ |\vec{F}| = 10\sqrt{2} \] 3. **Identify the Acceleration**: The acceleration is given as: \[ \vec{a} = 1 \, \text{m/s}^2 \] 4. **Use Newton's Second Law to Find Mass**: According to Newton's second law: \[ \vec{F} = m \cdot \vec{a} \] Rearranging for mass \( m \): \[ m = \frac{|\vec{F}|}{|\vec{a}|} \] Substituting the values: \[ m = \frac{10\sqrt{2}}{1} = 10\sqrt{2} \, \text{kg} \] 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the mass of the body is: \[ m = 10\sqrt{2} \, \text{kg} \]
