with what magnitude of force does a ball of mass 0.75 kilograms need to be hit so that it accelerates at the rate of 25 meters/second2? assume that the ball undergoes motion along a straight line.

A ball of mass 0.75 kilograms needs to be hit so that it accelerates at the rate of 25 assuming that the ball undergoes motion along a straight line and the mount of Force required is 18.75 newton.

Explanation:

According to Newton`s 2nd  law F=Ma,

where M mass of the object, a- Acceleration due to gravity.

Given-

Mass (m) = 0.75 kg

Acceleration (a) = 25

We know That, Force = mass × acceleration

Substituting the given values , we get

  F = 0.75 × 25

   F= 18.75 N
