Harry and Hagrid needed to get money out of Gringots bank. The bank cart was accelerating at a rate of 4 m/s2 and it had a mass of 8,000 kg. What is the net force acting on the cart?

USE THE FORMULA: F=m∙a Show all your work!

Since Force= Mass * Acceleration,

The cart’s mass is 8000kg
It’s acceleration is 4m/s2

F= 8000 x 4
= 32 000 Newtons
