Solve for a in terms of F and m: F=ma

Elena-2011 [213]

To solve for a, you must get a by itself on one side of the equation. Now, a is "joined" to m by multiplication. To "separate" them, use the inverse operation, division.

Divide both sides of the equation by m.

$F=ma \\ \frac{F}{m}=\frac{ma}{m} \\ \frac{F}{m}=a \\ a=\frac{F}{m}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want r to be by itself what we can do is divide 2 on both sides so 2 can cancel out on 2r and when you divide on both sides your left with d/2=r
