Question

An eagle accelerates at 22.35 m/s2 with a force of 120 N. Disregarding other forces acting on the eagle such as gravity and air resistance, calculate the mass of the eagle. Round the answer to the nearest tenth of a kg.
The mass of the eagle is
kg.

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass of the eagle, m = 5.36 kg

Explanation:

It is given that,

Acceleration of the eagle, a = 22.35 m/s²

Force acting on eagle, F = 120 N

We need to find the mass of the eagle. It is given by using the second law of motion as :

F = m a

$m=\dfrac{F}{a}$

$m=\dfrac{120\ N}{22.35\ m/s^2}$

m = 5.36 kg

So, the mass of the eagle is 5.36 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.
