Question

The force on an object is given by the equation F = ma. In this equation, F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. What is the force on an object that has a mass of 10 kg and an acceleration of 2.5 m/s^2

A. 4 N
B. 0.25 N
C. 25 N
D. 12.5 N

Answer 1

Formula

F= ma

Givens

• m = 10 kg
• a= 2.5 m/s^2

Solution

• F = 10 * 2.5
• F = 25 Newtons

Answer

C
