Question

If you exert a net force of 8 N on a 2-kg object, what will its acceleration be?

2 m/s2

10 m/s2

16 m/s2

4 m/s2

Answer 1

`N = kg \: ms { }^( - 2)`

`8 \: kg \: ms { }^( - 2) = 2 \: kg \: a \\ \\ \frac{8 \: kg \: ms {}^( - 2) }{2 \: kg} = (2 \: kg \: a)/(2 \: kg) \\ \\ 4 \: ms {}^( - 2) = a \\ \\ a = \: 4 \: ms {}^( - 2)`
