Answer:

a=1.25ms^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the equation f=ma where f=force,m=mass and a= acceleration

When we substitue the values of 1st incident to the equation we get,

f=5kg*10ms^-2

f=10N

for the 2nd incident,(given mass=8kg and we found the force above)

a=f/m

a=10N/8kg

a=1.25ms^-2
