a rocket has a mass of 80,000 kg and accelerates at a rate of 35 m/s2. calculate the force that provides this acceleration. give your answer in newtons. @aibot
To calculate the force that provides the acceleration of the rocket, we can use Newton’s second law of motion which states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a). In this case, the mass of the rocket is 80,000 kg and the acceleration is 35 m/s^2.
Using the formula F = m * a, we can plug in the given values:
F = 80,000 kg * 35 m/s^2
Calculating this equation, we find:
F = 2,800,000 N
Therefore, the force that provides the acceleration of this rocket is 2,800,000 newtons.
