Question

You accelerate a 0.43kg football 5m/s2. Calculate the force you applied to the football.

Answer 1

The force applied on the football is 2.15 Newton.

Given the data in the question;

• Mass of football; $m = 0.43kg$

• Acceleration; $a = 5m/s^2$

Force applied; $F = \ ?$

To determine the force applied on the football, we use Newton's laws of motion:

$F = m * a$

Where m is the mass of the object and a is the acceleration.

We substitute our given values into the equation

$F = 0.43kg\ *\ 5m/s^2\\\\F = 2.15kg.m/s^2\\\\F = 2.15N$

Therefore, the force applied on the football is 2.15 Newton.
