1. Convert Miles per Second to Meters per Second
* 1 mile = 1609.34 meters
* 10 miles/second = 10 * 1609.34 meters/second = 16093.4 meters/second
2. Apply Newton's Second Law of Motion
* Newton's Second Law states: Force (F) = Mass (m) * Acceleration (a)
3. Calculate the Force
* F = 9.5 kg * 16093.4 m/s²
* F ≈ 153,882.3 N (Newtons)
Therefore, a constant force of approximately 153,882.3 Newtons is required to give a mass of 9.5 kg an acceleration of 10 miles per second.
