A box hangs by a rope from the ceiling. The box weighs 25 N. If the rope breaks find the acceleration of the box.

Explanation:

Given

Weight of box= 25N

When the rope breaks the box will obey the Newton first law, and Accelerates due to free fall, hence the acceleration will be g=9.81m/s^2

so W=F = mg

where.

F=W =is the force pulling objects toward the Earth.

m=  the mass of the object.

g= is the acceleration due to gravity; this number is a constant for all masses of matter.
