Answer:
The force acting on the body can be solved by using Newton’s 2nd law of motion. The formula is Force = mass * acceleration. The mass = 4kg while the value of the acceleration a = (v2 - v1) / t.
Solving for the acceleration a
a = (v2 - v1) / t
a = (4m/s - 2 m/s) / 4s
a = 2 m/s / 4s
a = 0.5 m/s^2
Solving for the net force F that acts on the body
Force = mass * acceleration
Force =4 kg * 0.5 m/s^2
Force = 2 N
The net force is equal to 2 N.
