Question

What force would be needed to produce an acceleration of 4ms-2on aballof mass of 6kg

Answer 1

Using Newtons second law,

F=ma

given,

m=6kg

a=4m/s^2

therefore F=6 X 4=24 Newtons

Answer 2

Solutions;

The force needed is to be calculated by using the formula;

Force = Mass × Acceleration

Here, Force, F = ?

Mass , m = 6 kg

And, Acceleration , a = 4 m/s2

Now, putting these values of m and a in the above question, we get;

=> F = 6 × 4

=> F = 24 N
