Question :-

  • A pitcher accelerates a baseball with a mass of 1.5 kg at 6m/s2.How much forces did this does this take ?

Required Solution :-

  • The force applied on the baseball was 9 N.

Provided that :-

  • The mass of the baseball is 1.5 kg
  • The acceleration is 6 m/s²

To Calculate :-

  • The force applied on the baseball .

Using Formula :-

  • Force = Mass × Acceleration

Calculation :-


\qquad\purple{ \pmb{\sf Force = Mass * Acceleration}}


\qquad \longrightarrow \pmb{\sf Force = 1.5\; kg * 6 \; m/s^2}


\qquad \longrightarrow \pmb{\sf Force = 9 \; kgm/s^2}


\qquad\longrightarrow {\pink{\underline{\underline{\pmb{\sf{ Force_((Applied )) = 9 N }}}}}}

Henceforth :-

  • The force applied on the baseball is 9 N.

Force = mass x acceleration.

Force = 1.5 kg x 6m/s^2

Force = 9 newtons
