Newton's second law states that Fnet = ma, where Fnet is the net force applied, m is the mass of the object, and a is the object's acceleration. You have the values for Fnet and a, so you simply use this equation to solve for m, mass.

Answer:

m=5.2kg

Step-by-step explanation:

A net force of 125 n is applied to a certain object. as a result, the object accelerates with an acceleration of 24.0 m/s2. the mass of the object is

from newton's second law of motion , which states that

the rate change in momentum of an object is directly proportional to the force applied

definition of terms you should know.

a force is tat which tends to cane a body state of rest or uniform motion in a strait line

mass is the quantity of matter in a body

acceleration is change in velocity per time

therefore,

f∝m(V-U)/t

f=km(V-U)/t

k=1

f=m(V-U)/t

(V-U)/t=a

f=ma

f=125N

a=24m/s^2

m=5.2kg

the mass of the object
