You understand that a constant force causes a constant acceleration, right?

As soon as you apply 80N to the 100kg mass, it will immediately be accelerating at 0.8m/s/s.


Yes , I realize that because that is exactly what it says.

1N is the force required to accelerate a 1kg mass to 1m/s/s
in 1 second.

its not immediately or instant , thats why they use 1 second as the time period required for the mass to reach the acceleration rate of 1 m/s/s !!
if it was an instant acceleration then a 1kg mass could be moved a distance of 1 meter in 1 second using a force of 1N

but a 1kg mass will only move a distance of .5 meters in 1 second using a force of 1N.

1N is the force required to accelerate a 1kg mass to 1m/s/s
in 1 second.

It won't increase to 0.9m/s/s if you wait longer.


exactly

thats why it says

1N is the force required to accelerate a 1kg mass to 1m/s/s
in 1 second.

an acceleration rate will only change if more or less force is applied to an object.

and a constant force of 1N will constantly accelerate a 1kg mass at a rate of 1m/s/s

thats why it says

1N is the force required to accelerate a 1kg mass to 1m/s/s
in 1 second.


3/4 inch of dust build up on the moon in 4.527 billion years,LOL and QM is fantasy science.
