Question

A box rests on a frozen pond, which serves as a frictionless horizontal surface. If a fisherman applies a horizontal force with magnitude 48 N, to the box and produces an acceleration of magnitude 3 m+s^2 , what’s the mass of the box

Answer 1

Dear student,
​​​​​​$$\begin{gathered} force=mass\times acceleration \\ mass=\frac{force}{acceleration}=\frac{48}{3}=16kg \\ Regards \end{gathered}$$
