The whale shark is the largest of all fish and can have the mass of three adult elephants. Suppose that a crane is lifting a whale shark into a tank for delivery
to an aquarium. The crane must exert an unbalanced force of 2.5 x 104 N to
lift the shark from rest. If the shark's acceleration while being lifted equals
1.25 m/s², what is the shark's mass?

m = 20,000 kg

Explanation:

Force,

Acceleration of the shark,

It is required to find the mass of the shark. Let m is the mass. Using second law of motion to find it as follows :

F = ma

Putting the value of F and a to find m

So, the shark's mass is 20,000 kg.
