Question

1. A 125 kg box was pushed by applying a

force. The box is accelerated at a rate of
2.0 m/s2. Calculate the applied force.

Answer 1

• Mass=125kg
• Acceleration=2m/s^2

Using newtons second law

`\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=Mass(Acceleration)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=125(2)`

`\\ \sf\longmapsto Force=250N`

Answer 2

F = 250 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of box = 125 Kg

Acceleration = 2.0 m/s²

Applied force = ?

Solution:

Formula:

F = m×a

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

by putting values,

F = 125 Kg × 2.0 m/s²

F = 250 N ( Kg.m/s² = N)
