Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.225 \ Newtons}}[/tex]
Explanation:
We are asked to find the force being applied to a book. According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration.
[tex]F= ma[/tex]
The mass of the book is 0.75 kilograms and the acceleration is 0.3 meters per square second. Substitute these values into the formula.
[tex]F= 0.75 \ kg * 0.3 \ m/s^2[/tex]
Multiply.
[tex]F =0.225 \ kg * m/s^2[/tex]
1 kilogram meter per second squared is equal to 1 Newton. Therefore, our answer of 0.225 kilogram meters per second squared is equal to 0.225 Newtons.
[tex]F= 0.225 \ N[/tex]
0.225 Newtons of force are applied to the book.
