Apumpkin with a mass of 2.5 kg was pushed toward a wall. the average acceleration of the pumpkin was 10.7 m/s². how much force was applied to the pumpkin to make it move? 1. 4.28 n 2. 26.75 n 3. 4.28 m/s² 4. 26.75m/s²

The correct option is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of force is

Where, F is force, m is mass of the object and a is acceleration.

A pumpkin with a mass of 2.5 kg was pushed toward a wall. The average acceleration of the pumpkin was 10.7 m/s².

Put m=2.5 and a=10.7 in the above formula.

Unit of force is N.

Therefore the force was applied to the pumpkin to make it move is 26.75 N. The correct option is 2.
