Question

A net constant force of 1500 N gives a toy rocket an acceleration of 2.5 m/s squared. what is the the mass of the rocket?

Answer 1

We have

F=1500N

a=2.5 m/s^2

We use the next formula

`F=ma`

Where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Then we substitute

`1500=2.5\text{ m}`

Then we isolate the m

`m=(1500)/(2.5)=600kg`

ANSWER

the mass of the rocket is 600kg
