    Explanation:

    Net force f causes mass m1 to accelerate at rate

    a. a net force of 3f causes mass m2 to accelerate at rate 2a. what is the ratio of mass m1 to mass m2?

    force is that which changes a body's state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line

    mass is the quantity of matter in a body

    acceleration is cane in velocity per time

    form newtons second law of motion, we know tat te rate of cane in momentum is directly proportional to te force applied

    f=km (v-u) / t.

    k=1

    (v-u) / t.=a

    f=ma

    for the first case

    f=m1a

    m1=f/a

    for the second case

    3f=m2*2a

    m2=3f/2a

    equating the first case with the second case

    f/a=1.5f/a

    Well, if F = ma, then to find the mass the equation is m = Fa

    So then m (1) = Fa (1)

    m (2) = F (3) a (2)

    Fa (1) : F (3) a (2) should be the ratio, though the question doesn't clarify how simplified this answer needs to be. So it may be incorrect.
