Question

1. a 5 kg object is pushed and accelerates at 4 m/s². find the force exerted on the object. units are newtons (n)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the formula

Newton's second law: \(F = ma\) (where \(F\) is force, \(m\) is mass, \(a\) is acceleration)

Step2: Substitute values

Given \(m = 5\space kg\), \(a=4\space m/s^{2}\). Then \(F=(5)(4)\)

Step3: Calculate

\(F = 20\)

Answer:

\(20\)
