Question

A force of 5 N gives to mass my and an acceleration of 8m/s2 and a mass m2

an acceleration of 24m/s2. What acceleration would it give if both masses are
tied together

Answer 1

a=6m/sec²

Step-by-step explanation:

f=5 N

a1=8m/sec²

a2=24m/sec

m1=f/a1=5/8kg

m2=f/a2=5/24kg

New, f=(m1+m2)a

a=5/5/8+5/24=5/15+5/24=24*5/20

a=6m/sec²
