Answer :
To find the mass of the crate, we can use the formula:
[tex]\[ F = ma \][/tex]
where:
- [tex]\( F \)[/tex] is the force applied (200 N),
- [tex]\( m \)[/tex] is the mass of the crate (what we're trying to find),
- [tex]\( a \)[/tex] is the acceleration (8 m/s²).
We need to solve for [tex]\( m \)[/tex]. To do that, we can rearrange the formula:
[tex]\[ m = \frac{F}{a} \][/tex]
Now, we substitute the given values into the formula:
[tex]\[ m = \frac{200 \, \text{N}}{8 \, \text{m/s}^2} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ m = 25 \, \text{kg} \][/tex]
So, the mass of the crate is 25 kg.
