Question

Force (denoted by F) can be defined as a function of mass (denoted by m) and acceleration (denoted by a) using this formula F=ma mass is measured in kg, and acceleration is measured in m/s

Answer 1

Units are written in bracelets.

`F=ma \: \{kg\cdot(m)/(s^2)\}`

`F=ma \: \{\boxed{(kg\cdot m)/(s^2)}=N\}`

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Force is defined as a function of mass (denoted by m) and acceleration (denoted by a) using this formula F=ma

units for mass m is kg

units for acceleration is metre/sec^2

Hence together we can write unit as

unit for force =
`Kg m/sec^2`

This can also be expressed as newtons

Unit for force = newtons also.
