Answer:

13a/15

Step-by-step explanation:

According to newton's second law

F = ma

F is the force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

From the formula:

a = F/m

Given

F = 13F

m = 15m

Substitute the given parameters into the formula:

a' = 13F/15m

a' = 13/15 * F/m

a' = 13/15 * a

a' = 13a/15

Hence the new acceleration a' that results in terms of a is 13a/15
