What mass does a boat have if, under the action of a force of 100n, it moves with an acceleration of 0.5m / s2?

These tasks: F (the value of the force under the action of which the boat moves at an accelerated rate) = 100 N; a (boat acceleration) = 0.5 m / s2.

The mass that the boat will have can be determined using Newton’s second law: F = m * a and m = F / a.

Let’s calculate the mass of the boat: m = 100 / 0.5 = 200 kg.

Answer: The boat will weigh 200 kilograms.
