help I do not understand this

Hello!
To find the acceleration given the net force (N) and the mass (kg), we will need to use Newton's Second Law of Motion, which is shortened to be F = ma.
In this formula, F is the net force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.
Since we are given the net force and mass, we will be using division to find the acceleration, which is measured as m/s².
1). Net Force: 5.0 N; Mass = 2.5 kg
5.0 N / 2.5 kg = 2.0 m/s²
2). Net Force: 2.32 N; Mass = 12 kg
2.32 N / 12 kg ≈ 0.19 m/s²
3). Net Force: 18.2 N; Mass: 1.967 kg
18.2 N / 1.967 kg ≈ 9.25 m/s²
4). Net Force: 0.87 N; Mass: 21.2 kg
0.87 N / 21.2 kg ≈ 0.04 m/s²
5). Net Force: 180 N; Mass: 1.793 kg
180 N / 1.793 kg ≈ 100.39 m/s²
