A spring scale shows a net force of 0.8 N acting on a 1.5-kg mass. What happens to the acceleration of the object if the net force is decreased to 0.2 N?(1 point)

Question

The acceleration increases to four times its original value, or about 0.13 m/s2.

The acceleration decreases to a quarter of its original value, or about 0.13 m/s2.

The acceleration increases to four times its original value, or about 2.13 m/s2.

The acceleration decreases to a quarter of its original value, or about 2.13 m/s2.

Answer 1

F = m*a
0.8 = 1.5a
a = 0.53 m/s^2.

F = m*a
0.2 = 1.5a
a = 0.13 m/s^2
a = 0.13 m/s^2.

Answer 2

B) The acceleration decreased to *a quarter* of its original value, or about 0.13 m/s^2.
