For a moving object, the force acting on the object varles directly with the object's acceleration. When a force of 25 N acts on a certain object, the acceleration

of the object is 5 m/s. If the acceleration of the object becomes 9 m/s', what is the force?​

According to the Question,


\large{\sf{ f \propto \: a}}

From the Question,

  • Initial Acceleration,a = 5 m/s²

  • Force at a = 5 m/s²,f = 25 N

  • Final Acceleration,A = 9 m/s²

To find

Force exerted on the object at a = 9 m/s²

We Know that,


\huge{\boxed{ \boxed{ \sf{f = ma}}}}

Firstly,we need to find the mass of the object

Thus,


\sf{m = (f)/(a) } \\ \\ \implies \: \sf{m = (25)/(5) } \\ \\ \huge{ \implies \: \sf{m = 5 \: kg}}

Now,


\sf{F = mA} \\ \\ \implies \: \sf{F = (5)(9)} \\ \\ \huge{ \implies \: \sf{F = 45 \: N}}
