Answer:

F= 5000 N

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is related to force on a body, and to tackle it we need to apply newtons first law of motion which states that "a body will continue to be at rest or uniform motion except acted upon by an external force greater than the force keeping the body at rest or uniform motion"

given

mass m= 200kg

acceleration a= 25 m/s

we know that

F= ma

F= 200*25

F= 5000 N
