Net Force = mass x acceleration

Friction always opposes motion, which means it is to the left.

Therefore, net force = 20 - 12 = 8 N

8 N = 2 kg x acceleration

acceleration = 8 / 2 = 4 m s-2

A newton is a kg *m/ s^2. Acceleration is in m/s^2. Thus divide the force in Newtons by kilograms and you will get an acceleration value.

In this case: 20 N / 100 kg = 0.2 m/ s^2

F = m x a

a = F/m = 40kg m s2/ 10kg = 4 m/s2

Answer 1:

F=ma

20N=10kg a

10m/s=a

Answer 2:

F=ma

20N=10kg*a

a=20N/10kg

a=2m/s2

When a horizontal force equal to its weight is applied to an object on a frictionless surface what is its acceleration?

9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 horizontally, provided the exercise is performed on or near the Earth.


What will happen if you apply a force on top of a disk kept on a frictionless surface?

The disc will slow down as a result of the friction applied by the force.


Will a skateboard go faster if you push it with the same force for a longer time?

Yes. The force is measured as "acceleration" and is meters per second per second (or velocity per second) or the first derivative of velocity. On a frictionless surface in an environment without air resistance, and if the skateboard is a frictionless mechanism, if the skateboard is moving at a constant velocity, that means the acceleration is zero, which means that there is no force being applied to it and it is a body in motion staying in motion.


Does the acceleration remain constant if the applied force was increasing?

No. Acceleration is proportional to the applied force.


What will the mass and acceleration produce if the applied force is constant?

If the applied force is constant, the acceleration will also be constant. To know the actual amount of acceleration, you divide the force by the mass.


How is the acceleration of an object affected by the force applied to it?

Acceleration increases as force increases.


How does the acceleration of a mass change if the force applied to it increases or decreases?

When the applied force increases, the acceleration increases When the applied force decreases, the acceleration decreases. This can be explained using Newton's second law of motion. F = ma


Plot the graph of force vs acceleration?

Acceleration is directly proportional to applied force.  When acceleration increases, force also increases.  If the force is tripled, the acceleration will also be tripled.  Note that the mass must remain constant...


When a force is applied to a body in what direction will the body accelerate?

Acceleration is in the same direction as the applied force.


How do you find an objects acceleration from its mass and the force acting on it?

Acceleration= total force / mass. Total force might be applied force minus frictional force, or applied force minus air resistance etc.


A force of 20 N gives a ball an acceleration of 4.0 ms on a level frictionless surface what is the mass of the ball?

F=mam=F/am=20/4.0m=5Kg


What happens to the acceleration of the object when force applied reduced to one third?

F = M A Acceleration is directly proportional to force. When force applied to an object is reduced to one third, the object's acceleration is reduced to one third.
