F = M a
15 = M (1.5)
M = 15 / 1.5 = 10 kilograms

If you drop an object it will accelerate downward at a rate of 9.8 meters per second squared if you instead throw it downwards its acceleration will be greater or less?
It's initial acceleration (when it is still in your hand) will be greater than that of a free falling object. However, once it leaves your hand, there are no other forces other than gravity acting on it (neglecting air resistance), so a thrown object will accelerate at 9.8 meters per second squared.
Why does it require much less force to accelerate a low mass object than it does to accelerate a high mass object the same amount?
a sponge will have more matter packed in the same space
How can you make and object accelerate?
An object will accelerate if and only if there is a net force acting on the object.
An object will accelerate in the direction of what force?
An object will accelerate in the direction of net force
Near the surface of the earth what is the acceleration of an object due to the force of gravity?
In free fall,the force of gravity alone causes an object to accelerate in downward direction Huizar,Alexandra
The force required to accelerate a 200 kg object 15 meters per second squared is what?
Newton's Second Law of Motion states that Force equals the product of mass and acceleration. Thus, the force required to accelerate a 200 kg object 15 meters per second squared equals 200*15. This is equivalent to 300 Newtons.
If an object accelerates at 3 meters per second squared when a 10-newton force is applied to it what force would cause this object to accelerate at 6 meters per second squared?
F = ma, so if mass is constant, you need to double the force to double the acceleration. The answer is 20 N.
How does an objects mass affect how it accelerates to earth?
It doesn't. Close to Earth's surface, any object will accelerate towards the center of the Earth at a rate of about 9.8 meters/second squared, regardless of the object's mass.
If you drop an object it will accelerate downward at a rate of 9.8 meters per second squared if you instead throw it downwards its acceleration will be greater or less?
It's initial acceleration (when it is still in your hand) will be greater than that of a free falling object. However, once it leaves your hand, there are no other forces other than gravity acting on it (neglecting air resistance), so a thrown object will accelerate at 9.8 meters per second squared.
The force required to accelerate to one kilogram object by one meter per second squared?
One newton.
Why does it require much less force to accelerate a low mass object than it does to accelerate a high mass object the same amount?
a sponge will have more matter packed in the same space
The phrase''ten meters per second squared'' describes the?
Acceleration of the object.
Why are the units for volume and surface area raised to different powers?
Surface area is the sum of the areas of all the surfaces of an object. When you add units, they stay the same. Since you are adding, let's say, meters squared and meters squared and meters squared, your unit is still meters squared. Volume is a measure of how much space is inside an object. To find volume, you must multiply length, width, and height. In our example, that would be meters x meters x meters. When you multiply units, they multiply to each other. So, we get meters cubed, or meters^3.
What force is required to accelerate a ten kilogram object horizontally at 6 meters per second squared?
F = ma so F = 10kg x 6m/s^2 = 60 kgm/s^2 or 60 Newtons
What force needed to give 500 newtons this acceleration 3.00 plus 3 meters per second squared?
There is some confusion here. 500 newtons IS a force. You don't "give a force an acceleration". You can accelerate an object (which has a mass), but not a force.
What is a measure of the graviational force on an object?
m/s2 (Meters-Per-Second Squared)
How many meters per second does gravity accelerate an object's mass?
9.8 meters per second each second = 9.8 m/s2.
