A skateboarder pushes off the ground to gain speed. If they weigh 60kg, calculate the force exerted by the skateboarder when they start moving with an acceleration of 2m/s².
💡 Hint: Apply Newton's Second Law to find the force.
An astronaut pushes off a space shuttle. If the astronaut has a mass of 75kg and the shuttle has a mass of 2000kg, what can be said about the forces acting on both during this action?
💡 Hint: Consider Newton's Third Law and how mass affects acceleration.
