Answer:

500kg.

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law relates force, mass and acceleration to one another through the equation:

F = ma

We can rearrange this equation algebraically to solve for mass:

m = F/a

Substituting our known values for the variables, we get:

m = 1500N/3m/s2

So mass of the object is 500kg.

We know it's kg because Newtons (N) are a unit defined as 1 kg/m/s2, so m/s2 cancels out when we divide :)
