If you actually applied a 2 N force to a 1 Kg object it should accelerate 2 m/s/s. Why does it not accelerate that much in reality?

Sagot :

Answer:

Some amount of force is lost is tackling the frictional force and normal reaction due to the weight of the object in upward direction.

Explanation:

As we know force is equal to product of mass and acceleration

F = M * a

Substituting the given values, we get -

[tex]2 = 1 * a\\a = 2[/tex]m/s^2

But generally this acceleration is a little less than the value obtained through formula as some amount of force is lost is tackling the frictional force and normal reaction due to the weight of the object in upward direction.
