Question

!!!PLS HELP!!!

Use the formula or triangle to help solve for the two word problems below.
If a 5kg bowling ball is rolled down the bowling lane with 2.5 N of force, how fast will it accelerate?

If the same bowler uses the same force but now has a 2.5 kg bowling ball, how fast will it accelerate?​

Answer 1

We will use the same equation to solve for both problems and that equation is of force, it states that net force applied on a body is equal to the acceleration produced by the body multiplued by the mass of body...

`\mathcal{F= \mathfrak{ m * a}}`

Problem 1 :

If a 5kg bowling ball is rolled down the bowling lane with 2.5 N of force, how fast will it accelerate?

Mass = 5 kg

Force = 2.5 N

Acceleration = ?

• 
  `\sf \rightharpoonup \pink{2.5 = 5 * a}`
• 
  `\sf \rightharpoonup \pink{2.5 = 5 a}`
• 
  `\sf \rightharpoonup \pink{5a = 2.5}`
• 
  `\sf \rightharpoonup \pink{a = 0.5}`

➪ Thus, The acceleration produced by the ball is 0.5 m/s²

Problem 2 :

If the same bowler uses the same force but now has a 2.5 kg bowling ball, how fast will it accelerate?

Mass = 2.5 kg

Force = 2.5 N

Acceleration = ?

• 
  `\sf \rightharpoondown\purple{2.5 = 2.5 * a}`
• 
  `\sf \rightharpoondown\purple{2.5 = 2.5 a}`
• 
  `\sf \rightharpoondown\purple{2.5a = 2.5 }`
• 
  `\sf \rightharpoondown\purple{a = 1 }`

➪ Thus, The acceleration produced by the ball is 1 m/s²
