Newton's Second Law of Motion

Newton's Second Law of Motion states: Force (F) equals mass (m) times acceleration (a).

* F = m * a

Given:

* Mass (m) = 9760 kg

* Acceleration (a) = 4.6 m/s²

Calculation:

* F = 9760 kg * 4.6 m/s²

* F = 44816 N (Newtons)

Answer:

You would need a force of 44,816 Newtons to accelerate the airplane at a rate of 4.6 m/s².
