Question

A golfer hits a golf ball with a club. The mass of the ball is 0.05 kg. The ball accelerates at 2000 m/s2. What is the net force, to the nearest newton, that accelerates the ball?

Answer 1

Hello!

`\large\boxed{F = 100N}`

Use the equation F = m · a (Newton's Second Law) to solve:

We are given the mass and acceleration, so plug these values into the equation:

F = 0.05 · 2000

F = 100 N
