Instant that it leaves his hand?

Force = 12.5 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 250 g to kilograms = 250/1000 = 0.25 kg

Acceleration = 50 m/s²

To find the force;

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Making force the subject of formula, we have;

Substituting into the formula, we have

Force = 12.5 Newton
