A ball accelerates at a rate of 5 m/s2 when a 25 N force is applied to it. If the same
amount of force is applied to a 7 kg ball, what will happen to the ball's acceleration?

The acceleration of the ball would decrease when the same amount of force is applied.

Given the following data:

  • Acceleration = 5 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]
  • Force = 25 Newton
  • Mass = 7 kg

To determine the new acceleration of the ball when the same amount of force is applied, we would apply Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Mathematically, Newton's Second Law of Motion is given by this formula;

[tex]Acceleration = \frac{Force}{Mass}[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]Acceleration = \frac{25}{7}[/tex]

Acceleration = 3.57 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

Therefore, the acceleration of the ball would decrease when the same amount of force is applied.
