Question

If you use the same force to push a motorcycle as you would push a bike which one would have more acceleration and why explain using Newton's second law

Answer 1

the bike

Step-by-step explanation:

it has less mass than the motorcycle so so it would have more acceleration

Answer 2

The bike would have more acceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

Accourding to newtons first law a force is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration (f=ma) therefore an object with a higher mass compared to an object with a lower mass would experience less acceleration.

Eg.

F=50N

Motorbike M=200kg

F=ma

50=200 x a

50/200=a

0.25m/s/s =a

Bike M=35kg

F=ma

50=35 x a

50/35= a

1.43m/s/s=a
