Nikolas had an idea that he could use the compressed carbon dioxide in a fire extinguisher to propel him on his skateboard. Nikolas, the fire extinguisher, and the skateboard have a combined mass of 50 kg. What force would the fire extinguisher have to produce to propel Nikolas if he wanted to accelerate at a rate of 1.2 m/s2? Round your answer to the nearest whole newton.

60 N

Which of Newton’s laws did Nikolas have to use to calculate this force?
