Question

How much force is needed to accelerate a trolley of mass 20 kg through 1 m per second square?

Answer 1

Hey.

Here is the answer.

Mass of trolley = 20 kg

acceleration of trolley= 1 m/s^2

solution:

Neglecting friction, drag, etc., the defining equation is:

F (N) = m (kg) x a (m/sec^2).

Substituting numeric values yields:

F = 20 x 1 .

Which simplifies to F = 20 (N).

answer: F = 20 N
