A force of 0.20N acts on a mass of 100g. What is the acceleration?

20m/sec2
To find the acceleration, we can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that the acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on it divided by its mass.
In this case, the net force is given as 0.20N and the mass is given as 100g. However, it is important to remember that the mass should be in kilograms (kg) for the equation to work correctly. So let's convert the mass from grams to kilograms:
Mass in kg = Mass in g / 1000
In this case, the mass is 100g, so we have:
Mass in kg = 100g / 1000 = 0.1 kg
Now that we have the mass in kilograms, we can use Newton's second law of motion:
Acceleration = Net force / Mass
Acceleration = 0.20 N / 0.1 kg = 2 m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration is 2 m/s².
