Question

How fast will an object with a mass of `16 kg` accelerate if a force of `48 N` is constantly applied to it?

Answer 1

`"3 m/s"^2`

Explanation:

From Newton’s second law

`"F = ma"`

where

• F = Force
• m = mass
• a = acceleration

`"Acceleration" = "F"/"m" = "48 N"/"16 kg" = "3 m/s"^2`
