Answer:

The acceleration of ball is 2 m.s⁻²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ball = 5 kg

Force applied = 10 N

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

Definition:

The acceleration is rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time.

Formula:

a = Δv/Δt

a = acceleration

Δv = change in velocity

Δt = change in time

Units:

The unit of acceleration is m.s⁻².

Acceleration can also be determine through following formula,

F = m × a

a = F/m

a = 10 N / 5 kg

N = Kgm.s⁻²

a = 10 Kgm.s⁻² / 5 kg

a = 2 m.s⁻²
