Under the action of a force of 8 N, the body acquires an acceleration of 8 m / s2. What should be the body

Under the action of a force of 8 N, the body acquires an acceleration of 8 m / s2. What should be the body mass for the body to acquire 16 m / s2 under the action of the same force?

Initial data: F (effective force) = 8 N; a1 (initial acceleration of the body) = 8 m / s2; a2 (required acceleration of the body) = 16 m / s2.

The mass of the body will be equal to the ratio of the acting force and the required acceleration of motion: m = F / a2.

Calculation: m = 8/16 = 0.5 kg.

Answer: body weight should be 0.5 kg.
