That fact that Apple has rehired Michael Tchao, one of the original . Newton. developers, is likely to stir up stories and posts about ...

What happens when Newton Force is applied to two objects with different mass in space?
Q. This is the whole question: If an astronaut is in space and he has two books, one book with a mass of 100 grams and the other with a mass of 200 grams and he applies 5 Newton force on each of the two books, what happens? What happens when he applies 10 Newton Force to the books? It would help a lot if someone answered this question! Also, this isn't a homework question but a question I've already answered but didn't know the answer to.

A. Both books accelerate in the same direction as the force. The 100 gram book accelerates at twice the rate of the 200 gram book. Why? F= m/a a= F/m book 1 a = 5/0.1 a = 50 ms^-2 book 2 a = 5/0.2 a = 25 ms^-2 Think: Its harder to push a heavy object. An object twice the weight of another will be twice as hard to push and will accelerate (move) at half the rate of the lighter object. --- Both books will double their acceleration. Why? book 1 a = 10/0.1 a = 100 ms^-2 <- (it was 50 before) book 2 a = 10/0.2 a = 50 ms^-2 <- (it was 25 before) Think: Pushing something harder makes it accelerate more quickly. If you push an object twice as hard it will accelerate twice as quickly. OR When the force is doubled the magnitude (size) of… [cont.]
