15 points will give brainliest the following formula, f = ma, relates three quantities: force (f), mass (m), and acceleration (a). a: solve this equation, f = ma for a. b if f = -24 units and m = 10 units, what is the acceleration, a? use the equation from part (a) to answer the question. c: if f = 24 units and a = 12 units, what is the mass, m? use the equation, f = ma, to plug in the known values and solve for m

Part A

The expression "ma" is the same as "m*a" (m times a). To isolate 'a', we divide both sides by m. Division is the inverse operation of multiplication. Think of it as undoing multiplication

F = ma
F = m*a
F/m = m*a/m
F/m = a
a = F/m

a = F/m
Note: the slash "/" without quotes means "divide"


Part B

Use the result from part A. We will plug F = -24 and m = 10 into that equation

a = F/m
a = -24/10
a = -2.4

-2.4


Part C

We will use the equation F = m*a

F = m*a
24 = m*12 ... plug in F = 24 and a = 12
24/12 = m*12/12
2 = m
m = 2

2

Geometric pattern of 2 i’m guessing. not really sure about what you’re asking but i hope this !
