Answer 4

F = ma

Since it wants the force units in lbs (really should be lbf) you’ll have to convert slugs to lbs

1 slug = 32.174 lbs so 2.20 slugs = 2.20*32.174 lbs which will be your mass

acceleration is given as 1.53 ft/s^2

So simply plug the mass and acceleration into the equation to find force
