Under the action of a force of 6N, the body acquires an acceleration of 2 m / s squared, what is the mass?

Given:

F = 6 Newton – the force acting on the body;

a = 2 meters per second squared – the acceleration that the body acquired under the action of the force F.

It is required to determine m (kilogram) – body weight.

To determine body mass, you must use the following formula (Newton’s second law):

F = m * a, hence:

m = F / a = 6/2 = 3 kilograms.

Answer: body weight is 3 kilograms.
