F = m · a
In order to accelerate 82 kg upward at the rate of 3.2 m/s², a NET upward force of (82kg · 3.2m/s²) = 262.4 Newtons is required.
But if the object is on or near the surface of the Earth, then there's a downward force of (82kg · 9.8m/s²) = 803.6 N already acting on it because of gravity.
So you need to apply (803.6N + 262.4N) = <em>1,066 Newtons UPward</em>, in order to cancel its own weight and accelerate it upward at that rate.

Explanation:
Answer:
Force that acted on the body was F = 13 N
Explanation:
If once accelerated, the body covers 60 meters in 6 seconds, then its velocity is 60/6 m/s = 10 m/s
When the force was acting (for 10 seconds) the object accelerated from rest (initial velocity vi = 0) to 10 m/s (its final velocity). therefore we can use the kinematic equation for the velocity in an accelerated motion given by:

which in our case becomes;

and we can solve for the acceleration as:
a = 10/10 m/s^2 = 1 m/s^2
Therefore the force acting on the body, based on Newton's 2nd Law expression: F = m * a is:
F = 13 kg * 1 m/s^2 = 13 N
