Question

What is the net force acting on a 15kg sled that acceleration at 5m/s^2?

Answer 1

Answer:

$F=75$ newtons

Explanation:

Mass = 15 kg

Acceleration = $5\,m/s^2$

According to Newton's second law, $F=ma$.

Here, $m$ denotes mass of an object and $a$ denotes the acceleration, and $F$ denotes the force acting on an object. In other language, force is equal to the mass of an object times its acceleration.

Put $m=15\,,\,a=5$ in $F=ma$

Therefore,

$F=15(5)=75$  newtons
