Answer:

110 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Acceleration (a) = 3m/s²

Force (F) = 330N

Required

Determine the mass of the motorcycle

This question is an illustration of Newton's second law and will be solved using:

Force = Mass * Acceleration

F = m * a

This above implies that force applied on the motorcycle is a product of its mass and its acceleration

Substitute values for F, and a

330N = Mass * 3m/s²

Make Mass the subject

Mass = 330N/3m/s²

Mass = 110kg

Hence, the calculated mass of the motorcycle is 110kg
