Question

Another friend, with a mass of 75 kg, wants a push on the swing. How much force will

you need to accelerate this friend at the same rate?

Answer 1

735N

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law;

Force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

'

Given

Mass = 75kg

Acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

Substitute into the formula;

F = 75 * 9.8

F = 735N

Hence the force required is 735N
