Answer:

F = 10 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The newton law said that the net force is equal to the multiplication of the mass with the acceleration, it means that:

F = ma

Where F is the net force, m the mass and a the aceleration.

Then, replacing m by 2.0 Kg and a by 5.0m/s^2, we get:

F = (2kg)(5m/s^2)

So, the answer is:

F = 10 N
