There is a direct relationship between between an object's weight and its mass.
Weight is actually the force of gravity on the object's mass and it can be calculated by multiplying the object's mass and the acceleration due to gravity. The higher the mass, the higher the weight and the lower the mass, the lower the object's weight. Thus, the relationship is direct.
The acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is 
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to Newton’s second law of motion, any external force acting on a body will be directly proportional to the mass of the body as well as acceleration exerted by the body. So, the net external force acting on any object will be equal to the product of mass of the object with acceleration exerted by the object. Thus,

So,

As the force acting on the object is stated as 10 N and the mass of the object is given as 10 kg, then the acceleration will be

So, the acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is 
Answer:
Part a)

Part b)

Explanation:
Part a)
If block is sliding up then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block


so we have





Part b)
If block is sliding down then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block


so we have
