Question

Using the formula, Force = mass'acceleration. (F = m xa)(stated in Newtons (N)). Solve: A water-filled balloon with an overall mass of 1 kg undergoes an acceleration of 2 m/s2. How much force is being applied to the balloon?​

Answer 1

2N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the balloon = 1kg

Acceleration = 2m/s²

Unknown:

Applied force = ?

Solution

According to Newton's second law of motion:

Force = mass x acceleration

Now insert the given parameters and solve;

Force = 1 x 2 = 2N
