Question

If something is pushed with a force of 5 N at an acceleration of 2 m/s², what is its mass?

Answer 1

2.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's Second Law, we can calculate using this formula:

F = ma

If we substitute F for 5N and a for 2m/s, we get:

5N = m x 2m/s

Now divide each side by two and you get:

5N = 2.5kg x 2m/s
