What will be the value of acceleration if a body of mass 0.5 kg is acted upon by a force of 10 N?
Correct answer: D. 20 m/s2
- A. 40 m/s2
- B. 5 m/s2
- C. 10 m/s2
- D. 20 m/s2
Explanation
As m =0.5kg F = 10N Using; F = ma a = F/m a = 10/0.5 a = 20ms^-2. Hence, option D is correct.

About Force and Motion
Displacement, velocity and acceleration describe motion, including the horizontal and vertical components of projectile motion. The chapter connects these quantities with Newton's laws, momentum and impulse, then applies conservation of momentum to collisions, distinguishing elastic collisions from inelastic ones.
