Question

For a moving object, the force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration. When a force of 30 N acts on a certain object, the acceleration

of the object is 3 m/s. If the forde is changed to 50 N, what will be the acceleration of the object?

Answer 1

the acceleration of the object will be 5 m/s^2 when the force is 50 N.

Explanation:

The force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration, so we can use the formula:

force = constant x acceleration

where the constant is the same for both situations.

We can solve for the constant by plugging in the given values:

30 = constant x 3

constant = 10

Now we can use the constant to find the acceleration when the force is 50 N:

50 = 10 x acceleration

acceleration = 5 m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the object will be 5 m/s^2 when the force is 50 N.
