  1. The following formula relates three quantities: Force (F), mass (m), and acceleration (a).

F = ma

ASolve this equation for a.
BLet the force be units and the mass be m = 10 units. What is the acceleration, a?
CLet the force be F = 25 units and the acceleration be a = 5 units. What is the mass, m?

Af=ma

a=f/m

b) are You sure you typed it correct?

c) f=ma

25=m(5)
m=25/5
m=5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Since we have F  = ma and we have to solve for a

                     there is multiplication between m and a and in order to solve for a ,we need to apply opposite operation of  multiplication ,therefore dividing both sides by m ,we get \(\frac{F}{m}=a\)

(b)  Let F be the force and m = 10 units is mass

        acceleration =  \(\frac{force}{mass}\) [ If we have given value of F then we divide the value of F by 10 to get acceleration  value.

                               = \(\frac{F}{10}\)

(c)   Mass m  will be  given by equation

            \(m=\frac{F}{a} =\frac{25}{5} =5 units\)
