Answer:

The answer is 165 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

mass = 55 kg

acceleration = 3 m/s²

We have

force = 55 × 3

We have the final answer as

165 N

Hope this helps you
