The force required to accelerate a 5 kg bowling ball at 2 m/s² can be calculated using Newton's second law of motion, which states that force (F) equals mass (m) multiplied by acceleration (a):
F = m * a
Plugging in the given values:
F = 5 kg * 2 m/s²
F = 10 kg m/s² = 10 N
Therefore, the correct answer is 10 N.
