QUESTION:

Problem 6E

Section 5.4 What Do Forces Do? A Virtual Experiment

Two rubber bands cause an object to accelerate with acceleration a. How many rubber bands are needed to cause an object with half the mass to accelerate three times as quickly?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

We are going to find the number of rubber bands needed to accelerate the mass. Assume that the rubber bands produce equal forces.

The net force produced by the two rubber bands gives the acceleration \(\mathrm{a}\). This is expressed as

\(\Sigma F_{\text {net }}=2 F=m a\)

\(2 F=m a---(1)\)

Where \(m\) is the mass of the object.
