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 2kg produces an acceleration of 10ms^2 . If the same force acts upon another object whose mass is 5kg , what would this object's acceleration be?

(9 kg)(5 m/s^2) = M(3 m/s^2)
that the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass.
