Question

calculate the force required to produce an acceleration of 2.5 m/S2 in a body of 4 kg


​

Answer 1

Force=mass×acceleration

Force = 4×2.5

Force=10.0N

please follow me

Answer 2

Given

Mass = 4 kg

Acceleration = 2.5 m/s²

To Find

Force

Solution

We know that

$\rm \longrightarrow F=ma$

Here

• F = force
• m = mass
• a = acceleration

Units

• F = Newton (N)
• m = kilogram (kg)
• a = metres per second squared (m/s²)

According to the question

We are asked to find force

Therefore

We must find "F"

Given that

Mass = 4 kg

Acceleration = 2.5 m/s²

Hence

• m = 4 kg
• a = 2.5 m/s²

Substituting the values

We get

$\rm \longrightarrow F=4 \times 2.5 \ N$

Therefore

$\rm \longrightarrow F=10 \ N$

Hence

Force = 10 N
