The inertial mass of an object is a measure of its resistance to acceleration when a force is applied.
A miniature research CubeSat in deep space is propelled by a cold-gas thruster that exerts a constant resultant force of 0.18 N. This force causes the CubeSat to accelerate at 0.15 m/s2.
Calculate the inertial mass of the CubeSat.
