How much force is exerted on a sled if the mass of the sled is 65 kg and the acceleration is 4m/s2
F = m a = 65 * 4 = 260 Newtons
To calculate the force exerted on the sled, you can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a).
So, in this case, the mass of the sled is 65 kg and the acceleration is 4 m/s^2. By substituting these values into the formula:
F = m * a
F = 65 kg * 4 m/s^2
Now, let's multiply the mass and acceleration:
F = 260 kg*m/s^2
The unit "kg*m/s^2" is equivalent to a Newton (N), which is the unit of force. So, the force exerted on the sled is 260 N.
It is 61 kg because......nevermind sorry.
