calculate the horizontal force needed to make a 3.8 kg baseball accelerate at a 641m/s^2

Question

this problem is from a worksheet and need help solving it

answer the problem using one of this equations (F=ma) and (W=mg)

Answer 1

Use Newton’s second law F=ma

(Force = mass x acceleration)

Given:

mass m= 3.8kg

acceleration a = 641 m/s^2

Unknown: F

plug into equation

F = ma

F = (3.8)*(641)

F = 2435.8 N
