Question

a bowling ball rolled with a force of 15N accelerates at a rate of 5 m/sec^2 a second ball rolled with the same force accelerates 4 m/sec^2 . what are the mass of the two balls.

Answer 1

3

3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First ball

Givens

a = 5m/s^2

m = ??

F = 15N

Formula

F = m*a

Solution

15 = m * 5

15/5 = m

m = 3 kg

Second ball

Givens

a = 4m/s^2

m = ??

F = 15N

Formula

F = m*a

Solution

15 = m * 4

15/4 = m

m = 3.75 kg
