Answer:
[tex]6.3\ m/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
If the mass of a body is 15 kg and produced an 4.2 m/s², we need to find the acceleration if the mass is 10 kg and the same force is applied.
Force is given by :
F = ma
Since force is same
[tex]m_1a_1=m_2a_2\\\\a_2=\dfrac{m_1a_1}{m_2}\\\\a_2=\dfrac{15\times 4.2}{10}\\\\a=6.3\ m/s^2[/tex]
So, if the mass is 10 kg, acceleration is [tex]6.3\ m/s^2[/tex]
