NEET Physics Newton's Laws MCQ Question
A block of mass 5 kg is placed on a smooth horizontal surface. It is subjected to a horizontal force of 20 N. What is the acceleration of the block?
4 m/s²
0 m/s²
5 m/s²
2 m/s²
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to Newton's second law (not reused), the acceleration is given by F/m, where F is the force and m is the mass. Here, acceleration = 20 N / 5 kg = 4 m/s².
