Question

What is the mass of an object that has an acceleration of 2.63 m/s2 when an unbalanced force of 112 N is applied to it?

Answer 1

42.6kg Is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m doing it in science class right now

Answer 2

The mass of object is 42.6 kg

Solution:

Given that,

Acceleration = 2.63
`m/s^2`

Applied unbalanced force = 112 N

To find: mass of object

Newton's second law gives the relation between the applied force and the acceleration produced by it. Mathematically, it can be written as :

`F = m * a`

Where, "m" is the mass and "a" is the acceleration

Substituting the given values we get,

`112 = m * 2.63\\\\m = (112)/(2.63)\\\\m = 42.6`

Thus mass of object is 42.6 kg
