A 15 N force is applied to an object which then accelerates at 5.0 ms2. What is the mass of the object?

Please insert the information you know into Newton's Second Law (F=ma, that is, force = mass x acceleration), then solve for the unknown (in this case, the mass).

How do you write a sentence for newtons second law of motion?
When we apply force on an object, it accelerates in the direction of applied force. This acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of force and inversely related to the mass of the object.
How does force lead to motion?
A shove on an open door will force it into movement (motion) and it will close. cw: Mass moves at a constant rate (including zero) when there is no force applied to it. With a force applied, the mass accelerates. Accelerates means it changes its motion.
Do object with more mass accelerate faster than object with less mass?
No. If an object is being pushed with the same force, the acceleration will be lower if the mass of the object is higher. If the question refers to an object falling due to gravity, then the force is proportional to the mass. As the mass increases, so the force of gravity also increases and the acceleration will remain the same.
What will happen to an object if the frictional force opposing its motion is greater than the force pushing or pulling it forward?
The object accelerates in the direction of the resultant force.
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 a small mass with a lot of force applied?
The object accelerates.
An object with a mass of 5.0 kg accelerates 8.0 m s2 when an unknown force is applied to it what is the amount of the object?
How do you write a sentence for newtons second law of motion?
When we apply force on an object, it accelerates in the direction of applied force. This acceleration is directly proportional to the magnitude of force and inversely related to the mass of the object.
What happens if an unbalanced force is applied to an object?
When an unbalanced force acts on an object, the weight of the object decreases.
How does force lead to motion?
A shove on an open door will force it into movement (motion) and it will close. cw: Mass moves at a constant rate (including zero) when there is no force applied to it. With a force applied, the mass accelerates. Accelerates means it changes its motion.
When does a mass accelerate uniformly?
a mass accelerates uniformly when an external unbalanced and constant force is applied on it.
IF you apply a force of a 100 N to two objects and object a accelerates at 10 meters per second per second and object b accelerates at 12 meters per second per second which object has a smaller mass?
Object b has a smaller mass because Newton's second law says that F=ma ... or m=F/a ... or mass is inversely proportional to acceleration. Since the applied force (F) is the same in both situations and the acceleration (a) of object b is larger than that of object a, object b must be smaller than object a.
Do object with more mass accelerate faster than object with less mass?
No. If an object is being pushed with the same force, the acceleration will be lower if the mass of the object is higher. If the question refers to an object falling due to gravity, then the force is proportional to the mass. As the mass increases, so the force of gravity also increases and the acceleration will remain the same.
If an object accelerates at 3 meters per second squared when a 10-newton force is applied to it what force would cause this object to accelerate at 6 meters per second squared?
F = ma, so if mass is constant, you need to double the force to double the acceleration. The answer is 20 N.
What will happen to an object if the frictional force opposing its motion is greater than the force pushing or pulling it forward?
The object accelerates in the direction of the resultant force.
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.
How force related to acceleration?
F = ma. The force applied to an object creates an acceleration depending on the mass of the object.
