Under the action of some force, a body weighing 42 kg acquired an acceleration of 1.5 m / s.

Under the action of some force, a body weighing 42 kg acquired an acceleration of 1.5 m / s. What acceleration will prevail for a body weighing 112 kg under the action of the same force?

Let us find the force F according to Newton’s second law:
F = m1 × a1 = 42kg × 1.5 m / s ^ 2 = 63H.
Under the action of this force, a body with a mass of m2 = 112 kg will acquire acceleration:
a2 = F / m2 = 63H / 112 kg = 0.5625 m / s ^ 2.
Answer: 0.5625 m / s ^ 2.
