Suppose that a constant force is applied to an object. newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. a certain force acting upon an object with mass 4 kg produces an acceleration of 11 /ms2 . if the same force acts upon another object whose mass is 22 kg , what would this object's acceleration be?

the force on 4kg mass will be
4*11 = 44 N
and the acceleration of 22kg mass will be
44/22 = 2m/s^2
