    Complete question:

    a constant force acts upon an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain constant force acts upon an object with mass 44kg, the acceleration of the object is 4m/s². If the same force acts upon another object whose mass is 11kg what is this object's acceleration?

    Answer: 8m/s²

    Explanation:

    From the statement we deduced that acceleration varies inversely with mass where force was kept constant.

    Therefore,

    F/m = a or F = ma

    For the first statement, substituting the mass and acceleration gives:

    F = 44 x 4 = 88N

    Applying the force above to the second mass gives us:

    a = 88/11 = 8m/s²
