If two objects of masses 25 kg and 100 kg experience the same force 5 N, what is the acceleration experienced by each of them?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

From Newton.s second law (in magnitude form), F = ma.
For the object of mass 2.5 kg, the acceleration is a ` = F/m = (5)/(2.5) = 2ms^(-2)`
For the object of mass 100 kg, the acceleration is ` a = F/m = 5/100 = 0.05 ms^(-2)`
