Hello!
Use the equation F = m · a to solve where:
F = total force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)
We are given the force and mass, so we can plug these values into the equation to solve.
However, mass is used in kilograms, so we must convert from grams to kilograms:
1 kg = 1000 grams
Convert using dimensional analysis or proportions:
Plug in the force and mass to solve:
6.5 = 0.5(a)
Divide both sides by 0.5 (Multiply by 2)
a = 13 m/s²
