Physics

Newton's Law of Motions

  1. Newton's 1st Law of Motion: An object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion stays in motion
  2. Newton's 2nd Law of Motion: F = ma (Force is equal to [constant] mass times acceleration)
  3. Newton's 3rd Law of Motion: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

[Given] F = 20.0 N

[Given] a = 5.0 m/s²

[Solve] Mass m

Step 2: Solve for m

  1. Substitute in variables [Newton's 2nd Law of Motion]:                               20.0 N = m(5.0 m/s²)
  2. [Division Property of Equality] Divide 5.0 on both sides:                            4.00 kg = m
  3. Rewrite:                                                                                                           m = 4.00 kg
