Answer:
F = 15.29[m/s²].
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law which tells us that the force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
ΣF =m*a
where:
m = mass [kg]
a = acceleration = 0.5 [m/s²]
Therefore we must find first the mass.
[tex]W =m*g\\m=W/g\\m = 300/9.81\\m = 30.58 [kg][/tex]
Now replacing in Newton's second law.
[tex]F = m*a\\F = 30.58*0.5\\F=15.29[m/s^{2}][/tex]
