Wow! Four test (homework?) questions in under a minute. I hope you're not expecting answers anytime soon!
Try using the famous Newton's-second-law equation
F = M a
where M is the mass and a is the acceleration.
The product (F) will be in Newtons.
F = M a
where M is the mass and a is the acceleration.
The product (F) will be in Newtons.
