A constant force of 1000N acts on a mass m₁, producing an initial acceleration of 10m/s². When an additional mass m is added to m₁, the same force produces a new acceleration that is two-thirds of the initial value. Calculate the value of m₁ and the new acceleration?

  1. m₁ = 100kg, a = 6.67m/s²
  2. m₁ = 100kg, a = 10m/s²
  3. m₁ = 33.3kg, a = 6.67m/s²
  4. m₁ = 50kg, a = 5m/s²
