Answer:
90 N
Explanation:
Force, F is equivalent to the product of mass and acceleration, expressed as Force= ma from Newton’s law of motion
Where m is the mass of the object and a is acceleration.
Substituting the total mass of 60 Kg for m and acceleration as given 1.50m/s^2 then the force required will be 60*1.5= 90 N
Therefore, you need force of 90 N
