Problem

A force produces an acceleration of 3 m s−23\,\text{m s}^{-2} in a body of mass 4 kg4\,\text{kg}. If the same force acts on another body of mass 8 kg8\,\text{kg}, what will be the acceleration produced in it? (a) 3 m s−23\,\text{m s}^{-2} (b) 0.75 m s−20.75\,\text{m s}^{-2} (c) 1.5 m s−21.5\,\text{m s}^{-2} (d) 6 m s−26\,\text{m s}^{-2}
