Answer:

311,850 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Newton's second law:


F=ma

where

F is the net force applied on an object

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

For the object in this problem,

m = 27 kg


a=11550 m/s^2

Substituting, we find the force required:


F=(27)(11550)=311,850 N
