Answer:

The acceleration of the bag of sand is
$1\ m/s^2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Mass of a bag of sand is 100 kg

Weight of the bag of sand is 100 N

It is required to find the acceleration of the bag when it is dropped. The weight of an object is given by :

F =ma

When it is dropped, a = g

$g=(F)/(m)\\\\g=(100)/(100)\\\\g=1\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the bag of sand is
$1\ m/s^2$ .
