An object has a mass of 12.5 kg. If the object has moved 2.4 meters and has a constant acceleration of 1.6 m/s s to the right, what is the applied force? The m/s has a 2 in upper right hand corner...like 1.6 m/s square.

F = ma
F = 12.5kg * 1.6 m/s/s = 20 N
The distance moved doesn't matter unless you're looking for work done. W = F * D

Remember Force (F) is equal to the Mass (M) multiplied by the acceleration (a)............ F=Ma
F = (12.5x10^3) x (1.6) in Newtons,
then apply you applied force rules
