Question

A net force of 500 newtons causes

an object to accelerate at a rate of
5.0 m/s2. What is the mass of the
object?

A - 100 kg
B - .20kg
C - 600 kg
D - 2500 kg

Answer 1

The answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mass of an object given it's acceleration and the force acting on it we use the formula

`mass = (force)/(acceleration) \\`

From the question

force = 500 N

acceleration = 5.0 m/s²

We have

`mass = (500)/(5) \\`

We have the final answer as

100 kg
