Net force f causes mass m1 to accelerate at rate a. a net force of 3f causes mass m2 to accelerate at rate 2a. what is the ratio of mass m1 to mass m2?

1:1.5

Explanation:

Net force f causes mass m1 to accelerate at rate

a. a net force of 3f causes mass m2 to accelerate at rate 2a. what is the ratio of mass m1 to mass m2?

force is that which changes a body's state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line

mass is the quantity of matter in a body

acceleration is cane in velocity per time

form newtons second law of motion, we know tat te rate of cane in momentum is directly proportional to te force applied

f=km(v-u)/t.

k=1

(v-u)/t.=a

f=ma

for the first case

f=m1a

m1=f/a

for the second case

3f=m2*2a

m2=3f/2a

equating the first case with the second case

f/a=1.5f/a

1:1.5

the ratio of mass m1 to mass m2
