Question

How much force, in N, must be applied to a 18-kg object in order to accelerate it at 5 m/s2?

Answer 1

90 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Information :

• Acceleration (a) = 5 m/s²
• Mass (m) = 18 kg

To calculate :

• Force (F)

Calculation :

★ F = ma

→ F = 18 kg × 5 m/s²

→ F = 90 kg.m/s²

→ F = 90 N

Therefore, 90 N force is required.
