What's the net force acting on an 18-kg object if an acceleration of 3.0 m/s2 is produced?



A. 54 N
B. 12 N
C. 6 N
D. 36 N

F = m a = 18 * 3 N

To calculate the net force acting on an object, you can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration.

In this case, the mass of the object is 18 kg and the acceleration is 3.0 m/s^2. So, the net force can be calculated as:

Net Force = Mass x Acceleration

Net Force = 18 kg x 3.0 m/s^2

Net Force = 54 N

Therefore, the correct answer is A. 54 N.
