Answer:

The answer to your question is: B. F = 45 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the force exerted and inversely proportional its mass.

Data

F = ?

a = 3 m/s²

m = 15 kg

Formula

F = ma

Process

F = ( 15)(3)

F = 45 N
