Question

What net force is required to give a 25kg crate an acceleration of 2.2 m/s^2 to the right?

Answer 1

The net force required to give a 25kg crate an acceleration of 2.2m/s^2 to the right is;

25 x 2.2

= 55 N

Answer 2

Answer: Net Force , $F_{net}=55 Newtons$

Explanation:

According Newton's second law of motion net force applied on any object is equal to mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration .

Therefore , $Net Fornce(F_{net})=mass(m)\times acceleration(a)$

Given

mass, m=25 kg

acceleration, $a=2.2 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Putting the values of mass and acceleration we get

$F_{net}= 25\times 2.2 Newtons= 55 Newtons$

Thus net force required is 55 Newtons
