Answer 1

0.625 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula :

Force = mass × acceleration

=========================================================

Given :

⇒ Force = 5 N

⇒ Acceleration = 8 m/s²

===========================================================

Solving :

⇒ 5 N = mass × 8 m/s²

⇒ mass = 5/8

⇒ mass = 0.625 kg
