Question

Given a force of 100N and an acceleration of 5 m/s2 , what is the mass?

Answer 1

20kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Force = 100N

Acceleration = 5m/s²

Unknown:

Mass = ?

Solution:

According to Newton's second law of motion:

Force = mass x acceleration;

So;

Mass =
`(force )/(acceleration)`

Mass =
`(100)/(5)` = 20kg
