And accelerated it at 2 m/s2. The mass of the body is
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFConcept:
- Force exerted on an object is directly proportional to the mass of the object and the rate at which it is accelerated
- F = m × a
- And for converting vector quantity to its scalar quantity, it can be given as
Here x, y, and z are a magnitude of vector r along X, Y, and Z-axis respectively.
Calculation:
Given that,
Accelerated (a) = 5 m/s2
Thus, the magnitude of force will be
Now the force is expressed as mass times acceleration,
i.e., F = m × a ⇒ m = F / a
