8. A mass of 10 Kg is accelerating at 3 m/s2. What is the applied net force?

Answer :

Answer:

Explanation:

F = ma

F = (10)(3)

F = 30 N

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 30 \ Newtons}}[/tex]

Explanation:

We are asked to find the applied net force. According to Newton's Second of Law, force is the product of mass and acceleration.

[tex]F= m \times a[/tex]

The object has a mass of 10 kilograms and it is accelerating at 3 meters per second squared.

  • m= 10 kg
  • a= 3 m/s²

Substitute the known values into the formula.

[tex]F= 10 \ kg \times 3 \ m/s ^2[/tex]

Multiply.

[tex]F= 30 \ kg \times m/s^2[/tex]

1 kilogram meter per second squared is equal to 1 Newton, so our answer of 30 kg × m/s² is equal to 30 N.

[tex]F= 30 \ N[/tex]

The applied net force is 30 Newtons.
