A toddler peddling a tricycle applies a net force of 150N to the pedals. We will assume that 100% of this force is transferred to foward motion.

    dа ta:

    F = 150 N

    a = 5 m/s^2 (I corrected the units of acceleration)

    m = ?

    Formula: F = m*a (second Law of Newton).

    Solution:

    F = m*a = > m = F / a

    => m = 150 N / 5 m/s^2 = 30 kg

    Answer: the combined mass of the tricycle and toddler is 30 kg.
