Question

Find the mass of an object the accelerates at 3.4 m/s2 when a net force of 25.1 N force is applied to it. Answer in units of kg and include all necessary work.

Help Please

Answer 1

The mass of the body is 7.38 kg

Given,

• Acceleration of the object = 3.4 m/s²
• Net force = 25.1 N

We need to find,

• Mass of the body = ?

Using Newton's first law of motion .

• Force = Mass × Acceleration

➵ 25.1 = Mass × 3.4

➵ 25.1 ÷ 3.4 = Mass

➵ Mass = 7.38 kg
