    Explanation:

    Force can be found using the following formula.

    f = m*a

    where m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

    We know the desk has a mass of 36 kilograms. We also know that its acceleration is 0.5 m/s^2.

    m = 36 kg

    a = 0.5 m/s^2

    Substitute these values into the formula.

    f = 36 kg * 0.5 m/s^2

    Multiply 36 and 0.5

    f=18 kg m/s^2

    1 kg m/s^2 is equivalent to 1 Newton, or N.

    f = 18 Newtons

    The force being applied is 18 kg m/s^2, Newtons, or N
