Question

How much force is needed to accelerate a 66 kg skier 1 m/s2?

Answer 1

Answer:

= 66 kg x 2 m/s^2 = 132 N. Thus, a force of 132 N is needed to accelerate a skier, having a mass of 66 kg, by 2 m/s^2.

Answer 2

Answer:

The force needed to accelerate the skier is 66N.

Explanation:

The force acting on an object is given as,

$F=Ma$     (1)

Where,

F=force acting on an object

M=mass of the object

a=acceleration of the object

From the question we have,

M=66kg

a=1m/s²

By substituting the required values in equation (1) we get;

$F=66\times 1=66N$

Hence, the force needed to accelerate the skier is 66N.
