Given:
Force acting on a body = 15N
Mass Of body = 5Kg
To find:
the acceleration produced = ?
Solution:
We know that ,
[tex] \sf{force \: = mass \times acceleration} \\ \\ \sf{acceleration = \frac{force \: acting \: on \: body \: }{mass \: of \: body}} \\ \\ \sf{acceleration = \frac{ \cancel15}{ \cancel3}} \\ \\ \sf{acceleration = 5m \: per \: {sec}^{2} }[/tex]

Answer:
Given:
Explanation:
[tex]\rule{300}{1.5}[/tex]
Newton's Second Law:
It States that the rate of change of momentum of a body is directly proportional to the External force applied to it.
Expression:
Units:
Dimensional Formula:
[tex]\rule{300}{1.5}[/tex]
[tex]\rule{300}{1.5}[/tex]
From the formula we know,
⇒ F = M a
Where,
Now,
⇒ F = M a
Substituting the values,
⇒ 15 N = 5 Kg × a
⇒ 15 = 5 × a
⇒ a = 15 / 5
⇒ a = 3
⇒ a = 3 m/s².
∴ The Acceleration (a) Produced is 3 m/s².
