Question

HELPP PLZZZ!!! A wooden block is pulled at a constant acceleration of 1.4 m/s2. Find the net applied force on the block if its mass is 1.6 kg.

Answer 1

2.24N

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's second law,

Net force of a object is always equal to the product of its mass and its acceleration.

Let
`F` be the net force applied.

Let
`m` be the mass of the body.

Let
`a` be the acceleration of the body.

So,
`F=ma`

It is given that
`a=1.4\text{ }ms^(-2)` and
`m=1.6kg`.

So,
`F=ma=1.6* 1.4=2.24N`
