Question

How much force was applied to a 5 kg object if it accelerated by 15 m/s/s

Answer 1

Answer:

We use Newton's second law of motion, which states that,

F

=

m

a

where:

F

is the net force applied in newtons

m

is the mass of the object in kilograms

a

is the acceleration of the object in meters per second squared

So, we get:

F

=

5

kg

⋅

10

m/s

2

=

50

N

(

∵

1

N

≡

1

kg m/s

2

)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

75 Newtons

Step-by-step explanation:

By Newtons Second Law

Force F = mass * acceleration

So F = 5 * 15 = 75 N.
