Newton's 2nd Law is F= ma. Write a problem that gives the mass and the acceleration of an object and asks us to find the force.

An object having a mass of 20kg is pushed by John and it then accelerates down the inclined plane at a rate of 0.5m/s². Find the force applied on the object.

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

For example, an object having a mass of 20kg is pushed by John and it then accelerates down the inclined plane at a rate of 0.5m/s². Find the force applied on the object.

Given the following data;

Mass = 20kg

Acceleration = 0.5m/s²

To find the force;

Force = mass * acceleration

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Force = 20 * 0.5

Force = 10 Newton.

endocrine glands secrete hormones into the blood stream near them; the hormones then travel in our bloodstream until it reaches its destination, called a target cell, in distance parts of the body. in the target tissue, hormones lock onto the target’s plasma membrane, called the receptor site.
