When 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 10 kg, the acceleration of the object is 7 m/s². If the same force acts upon another object whose mass is 35 kg, what is this object's acceleration?
