An object with a mass of 5.0 kg has a force of 20.0 newtons applied to it. what is the resulting acceleration of the object?

The resulting acceleration of the object is .

Given :

Mass of the object = 5 Kg

Force applied on the object = 20 N

Solution :

We know that,

F = ma     (according to Newton's second law)

Now put the values of m and F in above equation we get,

The resulting acceleration of the object is .

acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (20-120)= -100 m/s.

1.5 min = 90 sec

acceleration = -100/90 = -1.11 m/s^2.

we don't care about the 150kg or the 2,500 meters. they don't make any difference.
