Answer the following based on Newton's Second Law:
• How much net force is required to accelerate a 12 kg mass at 3 m/s^2?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : Force=mass* acceleration=12*3=36N
• What would be the acceleration of a 4 kg mass subject to a net force of 20 Newtons?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : 20/4=5m/sec square
• If you exert a force of 20 Newtons on a 10-kg object and it accelerates in the direction of your force at 1.5 m/s^2, then how do you know there are other forces acting on the object besides your own?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : Net force is equal to =10* 1.5=15N
Sice the force exerted here is 20 N there has to be some other force acting on the object.
• What is the total of all those forces and in what direction does this total act?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : 5N.This force is acting in the same direction as of the other force. Positive force.
