Answer and Explanation:

A chemical formula is composed by chemical symbols (in letters, which indicate the chemical elements) and subscripts (numbers). For example, let see the chemical formula for <em>carbon dioxide</em>:

CO₂

The letters C and O are the chemical symbols for the elements carbon (C) and oxygen (O). The number 2 in subscript indicates that there are 2 atoms of O per molecule. The subscript 1 is generally not indicated in chemical formulae, so it is assumed that the number of atoms of C is 1.

Summarizing, the chemical formula CO₂ indicates us that the molecule if formed by 1 atom of the element carbon (C) and 2 atoms of the element oxygen (O).

Answer:

F = 30 N

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of toy train = 1.5 kg

Acceleration of train = 20 m/s²

Amount of force acting on it = ?

Solution:

The net force on object is equal to the its mass multiply by its acceleration.

Formula:

F = ma

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Now we will put the values in formula.

F = 1.5 kg × 20ms⁻²

F = 30 kg.ms⁻²

kg.ms⁻² = N

F = 30 N
