With what acceleration will a body with a mass of 400 g move under the action of a single force of 8 N?

m = 400 g = 0.4 kg.

F = 8 N.

a -?

According to 2 Newton’s law, the acceleration of a body a is directly proportional to the force F, which acts on the body, and inversely proportional to the mass of the body m: a = F / m.

a = 8 N / 0.4 kg = 20 m / s ^ 2.

Answer: the body under the action of force moves with acceleration a = 20 m / s ^ 2.
