The ratio of masses is m1m2=34\dfrac{m_1}{m_2} = \dfrac{3}{4}. According to the second Newton's law, the force is:


F=maF = ma

where aa is acceleration delivered to the body.

If the force is the same for both bodies, then:


m1a1=m2a2m1m2=a2a1=34m_1a_1 = m_2a_2\\ \dfrac{m_1}{m_2} = \dfrac{a_2}{a_1} = \dfrac{3}{4}

From the last equation:


a2=34a1a_2 = \dfrac{3}{4}a_1

If a1=12m/s2a_1 = 12 m/s^2, then:


a2=3412m/s2=9m/s2a_2 = \dfrac{3}{4}12m/s^2 = 9m/s^2

Answer. 9 m/s^2.
