Answer:

As Per Provided Information

  • Mass of Skateboard = 2 Kg
  • Accelerating at a rate of 3m/s²

we have been asked to find the net force on the skateboard .

Formula Used


\bf \:Force_(net) = mass \: * acceleration

Put the given value we obtain


\sf\quad \dashrightarrow\:Force_(net) </p><p> = 2 * 3 \\ \\ \\ \sf\quad \dashrightarrow\:Force_(net) </p><p> = 6kgm {s}^( - 2) \\ \\ \\ \sf\quad \dashrightarrow\:Force_(net) </p><p> = 6N

Therefore ,

  • Net force on the skateboard is 6 Newton.
