Answer:

0.5 second

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Force, F=20 N

Mass, m=5 kg

Change in velocity,=2m/s

We have to find the time taken to change the velocity .

We know that

Force, F=ma

Where

Acceleration, a=Change in velocity/time


a=(2)/(t)

Substitute the values


20=5* (2)/(t)


t=(5* 2)/(20)


t=0.5 s
