A box rests on a frozen pond, which serves as a frictionless horizontal surfaceIf a fisherman applies a horizontal force with magnitude 51.0 N to the box and produces an acceleration of magnitude 3.00 m/s2 , what is the mass of the box?

Answer:

the mass of the box is 17 kg

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of the force applied by the fisherman, F = 51 N

magnitude of acceleration of the box, a = 3 m/s²

the mass of the box is calculated using Newton's law of motion;

F = ma

where;

m is the mass of the box

m = F / a

m = (51) / (3)

m = 17 kg

Therefore, the mass of the box is 17 kg
