Question

An object moving with an acceleration of 4 m/s2

is acted upon by a force of 20 N. Compute the

mass of the object.​

Answer 1

Answer:

5kg

Explanation:

F=ma

m=F/a

m=20/4

m=5kg

Answer 2

Answer :

• The mass of the object must be 5 kg

Step by step explanation :

As it is given that ,

• Force acting on the object = 20 N
• Acceleration of the object = 4 m / s²
• Mass of the object = m

We know that force is the product of mass and acceleration so ,

• Force = Mass × Acceleration
• 20 = m × 4
• $\sf\dfrac{20}{4}$ = m
• 5 = m

As the units of mass is kg then the mass of the object is 5 kilogram
