Question

Determine the force needed to axt on 50 kg mass to give it an acceleration of 0.03 m/s2?

Answer 1

Given:-

• Mass of object ,m = 50kg

• Acceleration,a

To Find:-

• Force ,F

Solution:-

We have to calculate the force needed to accelerate 0.03m/s² of mass 50kg .

As we know that force is defined as the product of mass & acceleration.

• F = ma

where,

• F denote force
• m denote mass
• a denote acceleration

Substitute the value we get

$:\implies$ F = 50×0.03

$:\implies$ F = 5 × 0.3

$:\implies$ F = 1.5N

• Hence, the force required to accelerate the object is 1.5 Newton .

Answer 2

❍ Given that, we have a mass of 50 kg and we have to give it acceleration of 0.03 m/s²

⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀⠀⠀⠀

To calculate the force needed to act on that mass the formula is given by :

$\bigstar \;\; \boxed{\bf{ Force = Mass \times acceleration }}$

$\sf : \; \implies Force = 50 \times 0.3$

$\sf : \; \implies Force \; = 50 \; \times \dfrac{3}{100}$

$\sf : \; \implies Force = \dfrac{3}{2}$

$\sf : \; \implies Force \; = \; 1.5 \;\;N$

⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀⠀⠀⠀

Henceforth, the force required to accelerate that mass is 1.5 N
