3. An object with a mass of 1500 g (grams) accelerates $$ 10.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} $$ when ar unknown force is applied to it. What is the amount of the force?

Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To determine the amount of force applied to an object, you can use **Newton's Second Law of Motion**, which states:

$$
\text{Force} (F) = \text{Mass} (m) \times \text{Acceleration} (a)
$$

**Given:**
- Mass ($$ m $$) = 1500 grams
- Acceleration ($$ a $$) = $$ 10.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 $$

**Step 1: Convert Mass to Kilograms**

Since the standard unit of mass in physics is kilograms (kg), convert grams to kilograms:

$$
1500 \, \text{grams} = 1500 \div 1000 = 1.5 \, \text{kg}
$$

**Step 2: Apply Newton's Second Law**

$$
F = m \times a = 1.5 \, \text{kg} \times 10.0 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 15 \, \text{N}
$$

**Answer:**
The force applied is **15 newtons**.
The force applied is 15 newtons.
