An object accelerates 8.2 m/s2 when a force of 20.1 Newton's is applied to it. What is the mass of the object?

hey it's me again haha!

the answer to your question is:

answer: so f=20.1

a=8.2

m=?

f=ma

20.1 = 8.2*m in

20.1/8.2=m

so the answer is around 2.45 something!
also i'm sorry this question had be stumbled!

We are given:

Acceleration of the object (a) = 8.2 m/s²

Force applied on the object (F) = 20.1 newtons

Mass of the object (m) = m kg

Solving for the mass of the object:

From newton's second law of motion:

F = ma

replacing the variables

20.1 = m * 8.2

m = 20.1/8.2

m = 2.45 kg

Hence, the object weighs 2.45 kg
