If a student desk has a mass of 5 kg and was accelerated 2 m/s², how much force was required to move the desk?
To calculate the force required to move the desk, you can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that Force (F) equals mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a).
F = m * a
F = 5 kg * 2 m/s²
F = 10 N
Therefore, 10 Newtons of force was required to move the desk.
