Question

I need help with two questions in Physics.

1. A powerful rocket accelerates at a rate of 50m/s and a mass of 200,000 kg. What is the force required to make this happen?

2. A tennis player applies an average 10N force to a 0.05 Kg ball, what is the acceleration of the ball?

Answer 1

Use the formula

Force = (mass) • (acceleration)

to answer both questions.

Answer 2

1. I would say firstly multiply the mass by acceleration for number one.
2. For number two divide force by the mass.
