Homework Statement
A force of 1 N pushing on a mass m1 results in an acceleration of 1.0 m/s2. The same force acting on mass m2 results in an acceleration of 3.00 m/s2. What is the acceleration a3 for the same force pushing the combination of m1 and m2?
Homework Equations
well I know that acceleration = force/mass lol
The Attempt at a Solution
this is a example problem for my first test tomorrow morning.. honestly I don't have a clue how to solve this problem and a good explanation would be very helpful.
two other problems from the exam review
ACCELERATIONS for SAME FORCE on DIFFERENT MASSES
A force F acting on a mass m1 results in an acceleration a.
The same force F acting on mass m2 results in an acceleration 0.20 a.
What is the acceleration anew for F pushing the combination of m1 and m2?
A force F of 3 N acting on a mass m1 results in an acceleration of 1 m/s2.
The same force F acting on mass m2 results in an acceleration of 0.20 m/s2.
What is the acceleration a3 for F pushing the combination of m1 and m2?
