Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\tt 600 \ Newtons}[/tex]

Explanation:

Force can be found by multiplying the mass and the acceleration.

[tex]F=m*a[/tex]

The mass of the sled is 300 kilograms and the acceleration is 2 meters per second squared.

[tex]F= 300 \ kg * 2 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Multiply.

[tex]F= 600 \ kg * m/s^2[/tex]

1 kilogram-meter per second squared is equal to 1 Newton. Therefore, 600 kilograms-meter per second squared is equal to 600 Newtons.

[tex]F= 600 \ N[/tex]

The force used on the sled is 600 Newtons.
