    Answer:

    12N

    Explanation:

    Force acting on any body is equal to mass of body multiplied by acceleration produced in the body.

    Its formula is

    F = M*a

    where F is the force acting on body

    M is the mass of the body

    a is the acceleration produced in the body

    Unit of force is Newton represented by N

    1 N is force acting on body of mass 1 kg which produces acceleration of 1m/s^2.

    _____________________________________

    Given

    a = 0.50 m/s^2

    M = 24 kg

    therefore

    F = 24*0.5 = 12 N

    Thus,  magnitude of the boy’s pushing force is 12 N.
