Newton's second law says force (f) is equal to mass (m) times acceration (a). A scientist wants to calculate the force of an object where the acceleration of gravity (g) is 9.8 m/s2. Use the function to calculate the force for an object with a mass (m) of 0.29 kilograms.

a) 9.51 Newtons
b) 0.029 Newtons
c) 34 Newtons
d) 2.8 Newtons

As we know
F=ma
F=?
F= (0.29)(9.8)
F=2.842 Newtons
So, the answer will be D, 2.8 Newtons.
