Answer:

48,000 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 we have

mass = 6,000 kg

acceleration = 8 m/s²

We have

force = 6,000 × 8 = 48,000

We have the final answer as

48,000 N

Hope this helps you
