A force of 4 kg weight acts on a body of mass 9.8 kg calculate the acceleration

White raven [17]

Answer:

here given is a weight

then force becomes mg

that is F=Mg

=4*9.8

then by using the formula

F=Ma

a=F/M

=4*9.8/9.8

<span> Using conservation of energy

Potential Energy (Before) = Kinetic Energy (After)

mgh = 0.5mv^2

divide both sides by m

gh = 0.5v^2

h = (0.5V^2)/g

h = (0.5*2.2^2)/9.81

h = 0.25m
