Answer:
a = 4 m/s²
Explanation:
Given: 5000 g, 20N
To find: Acceleration (a)
Solution: Firstly, convert 5000g to kilograms
1000g = 1kg
∴ 5000g = 5kg if divided by 1000
A = F ÷ m
= 20 ÷ 5
= 4 m/s²
Newtons are derived units, equal to 1 kg-m/s². In other words, a single Newton is equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared.
