Question

When a 1.0 N force acts on a 1.0 kg object that is able to move freely, the object receives _____. a speed of 1.0 m/s an acceleration of .102 m/s 2 an acceleration of 1.0 m/s 2 an acceleration of 9.8 m/s 2

Answer 1

When a 1.0 N force acts on a 1.0 kg object that is able to move freely, the object receives an acceleration of 1.0 m/s².

For this question we can use F = ma formula.

F = net force on the object (N)
m = mass of the object (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)

F = 1.0 N and m = 1.0 kg

according to formula, a = 1.0 m/s²
