Question

A constant force is applied to an object, causing the object to accelerate at 13m/s 2
What would the acceleration be if each of the following things happened (from the initial state)?
a) the force is halved _________m/s 2

b) the object's mass is halved ________m/s 2 c) the force and the object's mass are both halved ________m/s 2 d) the force is halved and the object's mass is doubled _______m/s 2

Explanation / Answer

Force=mass*acceleration
a=F/M

a)a'=F'/m'
If force is halved
   a'=13/2=6.5 m/s^2
b) if the object's mass is halved
a'=2*13=26 m/s^2
c)If fboth are halved
   a'=13 m/s^2
d) if force is halved and mass is doubled
a'=13/4=3.25 m/s^2
