What is the force of an object if it accelerates 4 m/s2 and has a mass of 10 kg? (F = ma)
A.
0.4 Newtons

B.
2.5 Newtons

C.
40 Newtons

D.
100 Newtons

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. 40 Newtons

Explanation:

We are given the equation to calculate force:

Force=mass×accelleration

To find the answer, we just need to plug the given mass and acceleration into the equation. The units of these values are typically kg and m/s^2 when calculating the force in Newtons, which they already are (so we don't need to do any conversion).

Mass=10kg

Acceleration=4 m/s^2

F=ma

F=10×4

F=40 N

Therefore, the force of the object is 40 Newtons.

I hope this helps!
