for a moving object 50 force acting on the object, varies directly with the objects acceleration when a force of 16 n act on a certain object, the acceleration of the object is 8 m/s2 if the acceleration of the object becomes 5 m/s2 what is the force

Answer:

According to the given information, the force (F) is directly proportional to the acceleration (a). This can be represented as F = k * a, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Using the first scenario where F = 16 N and a = 8 m/s², we can calculate the value of k:

16 N = k * 8 m/s²

k = 16 N / 8 m/s²

k = 2 N*s²/m

Now, in the second scenario where a = 5 m/s², we can find the force (F) using the value of k:

F = k * a

F = 2 N*s²/m * 5 m/s²

F = 10 N

So, when the acceleration of the object becomes 5 m/s², the force acting on it is 10 N

hope it helps. pls mark me brain list :D.
