Question

A net force F accelerates a mass m with an

acceleration a. If the same net force is applied

to mass 2m, then the acceleration will be

A) 4a.

B) a/2.

C) a/4.

D) 2a.

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Using formula : F=ma

1st case: F=ma

2nd case: F=2mX

Equating F from case 1 and case 2

ma=2mX

a=2X

X=a/2
