Abox rests on a frozen pond, which serves as a frictionless horizontal surface. if a fisherman applies a horizontal force with magnitude 44.0 n to the box and produces an acceleration of magnitude 3.10 m/s^2 , what is the mass of the box?

Mass of the box, m = 14.19 kg

Explanation:

It is given that,

Horizontal force applied by the fisherman, F = 44 N

Acceleration produced in the box,

Let m is the mass of the box. It can be calculated using the mathematical form of second law of motion. The force is equal to the product of mass and the acceleration as :

m = 14.19 kg

So, the mass of the box is 14.19 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.
