1 m/s2 because Force = mass * acceleration, therefore acceleration = Force/ mass.

20 N / 20 kg = 1 m/s2

What acceleration will a force of 20 newtons cause if applied to a go kart with mass of 20 kilograms?

Please use Newton's Second Law for this. F=ma, or a=F/m.


As long as an object is not gaining or losing mass a net force on the object will cause a change in?

acceleration according to Newton's second law of motion, F=ma. The object will accelerate in the direction of the net force applied.


How does Newton's Third Law relate to a rollercoaster?

Newton's second law (Force equals mass times acceleration, F = ma) deals with acceleration so it "takes effect" every time that the roller coaster speeds up, slows down or turns (horizontally or vertically).Basically Newton's second law just says that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force applied to the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Or, in other words, the harder you push the faster it speeds up and the bigger it is the slower it speeds up (or slows down - deceleration is an acceleration).This means that in your roller coaster example, the object is the roller coaster and the force can be: The motors that start the coaster and lift it up hills. The brakes that slow it down. Gravity which pulls it down the hills. The rails and wheels which cause the roller coaster to turn around bends, etc. At each of these points, Newton's second law is at play, determining how much acceleration will result from the force applied to the roller coaster's mass.


How does the concept of Acceleration affect newtons 2 law?

Newton's second law of motion provides an explanation for the behavior of objects when forces are applied to the objects. The law states that external forces cause objects to accelerate, and the amount ofaccelerationis directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.


What is force and what units are used to measure it?

Force is defined as mass times acceleration. The unit of force is the Newton*:Related Information:* 1 Newton = 1 kg m / s2 (kilogram meters per second squared)More force is needed to make a heavier thing accelerate more.

How pressure is dependent on acceleration due to gravity?

Acceleration due to gravity is related to the gravitational force (or, more accurately, the gravitational field). This field causes an acceleration of 9.8 meters/second2. This is equivalent to 9.8 newton/kilogram, that is, every kilogram of mass is subject to a force of 9.8 newton. The gravitational field is often expressed in acceleration units, but the two are really equivalent: a net force of 9.8 newton, applied to a mass of 1 kilogram, will cause that much acceleration.


How is newton related to acceleration and velocity?

Newton's second law of motion mathematically relates acceleration to force as F = ma, where F is the force applied to an object, m is its mass, and a is its acceleration. Acceleration is also related to velocity through the equation a = Δv/t, where Δv is the change in velocity over time t. So, Newton's laws help explain the relationship between acceleration, velocity, and force.

What do unbalanced forces cause according to Newton's Formula?

Unbalanced forces cause acceleration.


An object accelerates at 3 meters per second when a 10 newton force is applied to it What force would cause this object to accelerate at 6 meters per second?

A 20-newton force would cause acceleration at 6 m/sec The acceleration is given by the formula F=ma (Force = mass x acceleration) so for the same mass, doubling the force doubles the acceleration for the same mass.


What produces accelerations?

Every force produces acceleration, if it's not canceled byan equal opposite force applied to the same object.


How is force related to acceleration and gravity?

Force is directly proportional to acceleration, according to Newton's second law (F = ma), where F is the force applied to an object, m is the mass of the object, and a is its acceleration. Gravity is a type of force that can cause acceleration, as in the case of free-falling objects where the force of gravity causes the object to accelerate towards the Earth.

acceleration according to Newton's second law of motion, F=ma. The object will accelerate in the direction of the net force applied.


What types of forces cause acceleration?

Forces such as gravity, friction, tension, and applied forces can cause acceleration in an object. When an unbalanced force acts on an object, it can cause the object to accelerate in the direction of the force.
