Question

An object accelerates 8.2 m/s2 when a force of 20.1 newtons is applied to it. What is the mass of the object?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

fomula is f=ma

so f=20.1

a=8.2

m=?

f=ma

20.1 = 8.2*m in

20.1/8.2=m

answer is 2.45--- something

Answer 2

Given - Acceleration of object = 8.2 m/s²

Force applied to object = 20.1 Newton

Find - Mass of object

Solution - Force, mass and acceleration are related to each other by the relation Force = mass * acceleration.

Calculating mass from the formula,

Mass = Force/acceleration

Mass = 20.1/8.2

Mass = 2.45 kilogram

Hence, mass of the object is 2.45 kilogram.
