Question

A net force of 25.0 N causes an object to accelerate at 4.00 m/s2. What is the mass of the object?

Answer 1

Answer:

6.25kg

Explanation:

m=F/a = 25/4 = 6.25kg

Answer 2

Answer:

Mass, m = 6.25 kg

Explanation:

It is given that,

Net force acting on the object, F = 25 N

Acceleration of the object, $a=4\ m/s^2$

Let m is the mass of the object. Using Newton's second law of motion. The force is given by :

F = ma

$m=\dfrac{F}{a}$

$m=\dfrac{25\ N}{4\ m/s^2}$

m = 6.25 kg

So, the mass of the object is 6.25 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.
