Nikolas had an idea that he could use the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher to propel him on his skateboard. Nikolas, the fire extinguisher, and the skateboard have a combined mass of 50 kg. What force would the fire extinguisher have to produce to propel Nikolas if he wanted to accelerate at a rate of 1.2 m/s2? Round your answer to the nearest whole newton. 60 N Which of Newton’s laws did Nikolas have to use to calculate this force?

Respuesta :

second force boiiiiiiiiiii

The force exerted by the skater is 60 N.

What is force?

Force is the product of mass and acceleration. We ought to know that force is a vector quantity. We have the following information;

mass = 50 Kg

acceleration =  1.2 m/s2

Hence, the force rounded to the nearest whole number is 50 Kg *  1.2 m/s2

= 60 N
