ILL GIVE BRAiNLIEST!!!!!


or a moving object, the force acting on the object varies directly with the object's acceleration. When a force of 49N acts on a certain object, the acceleration of the object is 7m/s^2If the force is changed to 14N what will be the acceleration of the object?

Answer 1

Use a proportion to solve this.

You know that 49N = 7m/s^2

You need to find the m/s^2 for 14N

The proportion is:

49/7 = 14/x

Now cross multiply:

(7*14) =49x

98 = 49x

Divide both sides by 49:

x = 98 / 49

x = 2

The acceleration for 14N is 2m/s^2
