Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the formula is F = M * A
your force is 100 newtons.
your acceleration is 10 meters per second squared.
your equation becomes 100 = M * 10
solve for M to get M = 10 kilograms.
that's all you need to do in this problem i think.

force is in newtons.
mass is in kilograms.
acceleration is in meters per second squared.

here's a reference.

<-->
With the mass in kilograms, and the acceleration in ,
the product is the force in Newtons.
Since you have the force in Newtons, and the acceleration in ,
the mass in kilograms is
.
The mass is .
