Answer:
The mass of the object is 8.41 Kg.
Explanation:
Mechanical Force
The second Newton's law states that the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:
F = m.a
Where a is the acceleration of the object. The SI unit for the force is the Newton: [tex]1\ Nw = 1~Kg.m/s^2[/tex]
We are given the net force of F=29.43 N acting on an object and producing an acceleration of a=3.5~m/s^2.
To calculate the mass of the object, we solve the above equation for m:
[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{F}{a}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{29.43}{3.5}[/tex]
Calculating:
m = 8.41 Kg
The mass of the object is 8.41 Kg.
