Question

A soccer ball kicked with a force of 13.5 N accelerates at 6.5 m/s^2. What is the mass of the ball? *

Answer 1

Given :

• Force of a soccer ball (F) = 13.5 N
• Acceleration (a) = 6.5 m/s²

To find :

• Mass of the ball

According to the question,

By using the formula of Force we will solve this question,

→ Force = Mass × Acceleration

Or,

→ F = ma

→ Substituting the values,

→ 13.5 = m × 6.5

→ 13.5 ÷ 6.5 = m

→ 2.07 = m

So,the mass of the ball is 2.07 kg.
