Question

Benny pushes a 20 kg crate from rest. If the crate accelerates at a rate of 3 m/s2, what is the amount of force applied for it to move?

Answer 1

60 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The force formula of acting on an object is F=ma.

This means that...

F= force

M - mass

A = acceleration

So to solve this you have to solve for F.

F=ma

F=(20kg)(3m/s^2)

F= 60 N.

I hope this helps, have a good day! :D
