Question

An object accelerates 5.0 m/s2 when a force of 12.0 newtons applied to it.What is the mass of the object?
Please help, I haven’t seen this question anywhere !
Also this is from my Science Class

Answer 1

Answer:

2.4kg

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law tells us that force is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by its acceleration, or F = ma. We can solve this equation for mass by rearranging algebraically:

m = F/a

So:

m = (12.0N)/(5.0m/s2) = 2.4kg
