$F_{net} = 50 N$ $F_"net" = 50 N$

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd Law says that

$F_{net} = m \cdot a$ $F_"net" = m*a$

So, plugging in your data, $F_{net} = 5 k g \cdot 10 \frac{m}{s^{2}} = 50 \frac{k g \cdot m}{s^{2}}$ $F_"net" = 5 kg*10 m/s^2 = 50 (kg*m)/s^2$

So the answer is $F_{net} = 50 N$ $F_"net" = 50 N$ .

I hope this helps,

$50$ $50$ newtons

Explanation:

We use Newton's second law of motion, which states that,

$F = m a$ $F=ma$

where:

$F$ $F$ is the net force applied in newtons

$m$ $m$ is the mass of the object in kilograms

$a$ $a$ is the acceleration of the object in meters per second squared

So, we get:

$F=5 \ "kg"*10 \ "m/s"^2$

$=50 \ "N" \ (because 1 \ "N"-=1 \ "kg m/s"^2)$
