Answer:

92.86 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

lThe mass of an object given only it's force and acceleration can be found by using the formula


m = (f)/(a) \\

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question

f = 195 N

a = 2.1 m/s

We have


m = (195)/(2.1 ) = 92.857142... \\

We have the final answer as

92.86 kg

Hope this helps you
