Question

A worker pushes on a crate, and it experiences a net force of

300 N. If the crate moves with an acceleration of 0.750 m/s2

,

what is its mass?​

Answer 1

We are given:

F = 300N

acceleration (a) = 0.750 m/s²

Solving for the mass of the object:

We know from the second equation of motion:

F = ma

replacing the variables

300 = m * 0.75

m = 300 * 100/ 75

m = 300 * 4/3

m = 100 * 4

m = 400 kg
