To accelerate a 5 kg box at 2 m/s^2, Lori should apply a force of 10 Newtons. This can be calculated using Newton's second law, F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.
To give an object a greater acceleration, you can either apply a greater force on the object or reduce its mass. Increasing the force acting on the object will accelerate it more, while reducing its mass will also result in a greater acceleration for the same force applied.
To give a large boulder a larger acceleration, you would need to apply a greater force to overcome the boulder's inertia. Increasing the force applied to the boulder by pushing, pulling, or using a mechanical device capable of exerting more force would result in a larger acceleration.
If a force of 30 N imparts an acceleration of 5 to an object and we desire only one fifth of that acceleration, then we apply only one fifth of that force. Take the 30 N and divide it by 5 and we find that 6 N is the force required to give our test object an acceleration of 1.
To find the force, you would use Newton's Second Law: force = mass x acceleration. In this case, the force required to accelerate a 5 kg box with an acceleration of 2 m/s² would be 10 N (5 kg x 2 m/s² = 10 N).
You can find an object's acceleration by dividing the force acting on it by its mass. The formula is: acceleration = force / mass. This will give you the acceleration of the object in the direction of the force.

Force equals mass times acceleration. To change a speed, you must apply some force (either positive or negative) to give the object some acceleration. How quickly the object's speed changes will correspond to the force given divided by the mass of the object. (ie, the acceleration)
1) To move a standing object we need to apply force and to stop a moving object we need to apply brakes. 2) Car

You ignore the acceleration, and just give them the mass. Now, if they give you the acceleration and the applied force, you could use m = F/a.
Acceleration is 0.25m/s2 (A = force/mass).
There is some confusion here. 500 newtons IS a force. You don't "give a force an acceleration". You can accelerate an object (which has a mass), but not a force.
Newton's second law F=ma can be rearranged to give acceleration: a=F/m
