Question

Which mass is undergoing to the greatest amount of acceleration ??

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Formula used to calculate acceleration is,

F = ma

Where F = force exerted on a mass

m = mass

a = acceleration due to force exerted on the mass

Option (1),

When F = 100 N and m = 100 kg

100 = 100a

a = 1 m per sec²

Option (2)

For F = 1 N and m = 100 kg

1 = 100a

a = $\frac{1}{100}$

a = 0.01 m per sec²

Option (3)

For F = 100 N and m = 1 kg

100 = 1(a)

a = 100 m per sec²

Option (4)

For F = 1 N and m = 1 kg

1 = 1(a)

a = 1 m per sec²

Therefore. acceleration in Option (3) is the maximum.
