Hi there!
Recall Newton's Second Law:
∑F = net force (N)
m = mass (kg)
a = acceleration (m/s²)
We must begin by solving for the acceleration using the following:
a = Δv/t
In this instance:
Δv = 3 m/s
t = 2.5 sec
a = 3/2.5 = 1.2 m/s²
Now, plug this value along with the mass into the equation for net force:
