a given net force propels an object along a straight-line path. if the net force were doubled, its acceleration would

Respuesta :

Based on the Second Law of Newton, if the net force were doubled, a system acceleration would also doubled.

The Second law of Newton stated that when a force is working on a system, the system's acceleration will depend on the amount of force and the total mass of the system. Newton's second law can be formulated as:

F = m.a

where:

F = net force working on the system

m = mass of the system

a = system's acceleration

If the force working on a system is doubled and the system's mass remains constant, the system acceleration would:

F = m.a

F' = 2F

F' = m.a'

2F = m.a'

2(m.a) = m.a'

a' = 2a --> the system new acceleration would doubled its initial acceleration.

However, this concept would not be working if the total mass of the system is changed.
