    Answer: 0.25N

    Explanation:

    Given that

    mass of book = 50 grams

    Convert mass in grams to kilograms

    If 1000 grams = 1 kg

    50 grams = (50/1000) = 0.05 kg

    acceleration = 5 m/s/s

    Force on the book = ?

    Since force is the product of mass of an object and the acceleration by which it moves.

    i. e Force = mass x acceleration

    force = 0.05kg x 5 m/s/s

    Force = 0.25N

    Thus, the force on the book is 0.25Newton
