which would require a greater force - accelerating a 2kg mass at 5 ms-2 or a 4kg mass at 2ms-2

Hi,

I hope you are doing well.

Force = mass × acceleration

So , F = ma


So when m = 2kg and a = 5m/s²

F = ma = 2× 5 N = 10 N


When m = 4 Kg and a = 2m/s²

F = ma = 4 × 2 = 8 N


First when m = 2kg and a = 5m/s² have greater force

Hope you get your answer of your question.

All the best.

Hello...

Hope you are doing good.

Force formula is mass*acceleration

F=m*a

case 1:

Force formula is mass*acceleration

F=2*5 = 10N

case 2:

Force formula is mass*acceleration

F=4*2=8N

The case 1 has greater force compared to case 2.

Hope this helps...
