Question

Find force if mass is 60 kg and acceleration is 2.1 m/sec2

Answer 1

F = 126 N

Step-by-step explanation:

F = ma

= (60 kg)(2.1 m/s^2)

= 126 N

Answer 2

`\boxed {\boxed {\sf 126 \ Newtons}}`

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is the push or pull on an object. It is the product of mass and acceleration so the formula is:

`F= m * a`

The mass is 60 kilograms and the acceleration is 2.1 meters per square second.

• m= 60 kg
• a= 2.1 m/s²

Substitute the values into the formula.

`F= 60 \ kg *2.1 \ m/s^2`

Multiply.

`F= 126 \ kg*m/s^2`

• 1 kilogram meter per square second (1 kg *m/s²) is equal to 1 Newton (N)
• Our answer of 126 kg*m/s² is equal to 126 N

`F= 126 \ N`

The force is 126 Newtons.
