An object with a mass of 3000 g (grams) accelerates 5.0 m/s2 when an unknown force is applied to it. What is the amount of the force? About the author Gabriella
Explanation: Given, Mass= 3000g = 3kg Acceleration = 5 m/s^2 Force= ? Newton From Newtons 2nd Law of Motion, F = ma F = 3kg x 5m/s^2 F = 15N Reply
Answer:
F = ma
m= mass : a = acceleration
m= 3000g = 3kg
a = 5m/s2
F = 3x 5 = 15 newtons
Explanation:
Given,
Mass= 3000g = 3kg
Acceleration = 5 m/s^2
Force= ? Newton
From Newtons 2nd Law of Motion,
F = ma
F = 3kg x 5m/s^2
F = 15N
