A force of 162 N is applied to an object causing it to accelerate at a rate of
. What is its mass?
43 kg
102 kg
616 kg
0.2 kg
To find the mass of the object, we can use Newton's second law of motion:
F = ma
Where F is the force applied, m is the mass of the object, and a is the acceleration.
Given:
F = 162 N
a =
Plugging in the values:
162 = m( )
Rearranging the equation to solve for m:
m = 162 / = 102 kg
Therefore, the mass of the object is 102 kg.
The correct answer is 102 kg.
