Answer:

32.4 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

mass = 36 kg

acceleration = 0.9 m/s²

We have

force = 36 × 0.9 = 32.4

We have the final answer as

32.4 N

Hope this helps you
