Question

In physics class, Carrie learns that a force, F, is equal to the mass of an object, m, times its acceleration, a. She writes the equation F=ma.
Using this formula, what is the acceleration of an object with F=7.92 newtons and m=3.6 kilograms? Express your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Using the formula to solve for acceleration you divide force by mass.

Acceleration = 7.92 / 3.6 = 2.2

Answer 2

Answer:

Acceleration: 2.2 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

F=M/A

7.92/ 3.6

2.2.
