Question

Newton's second law says that force (f) is equal to mass (m) times acceration (a). A scientist wants to calculate the force of an object where the acceleration of gravity (g) is 9.8 m/s^2. Use the function to calculate the force for an object with a mass (m) of 0.29 kilograms.

A) 9.51 Newton's
B)0.029 Newton's
C) 34 Newton's
D) 2.8 Newton's

Answer 1

2.8 Newton's

Explanation:

Force = mass×acceleration

F=ma

m=0.29kg

a=9.8m/s²

F=0.29kg×9.8m/s²

F= 2.84N=2.8N

Answer 2

It would be D. 0.29 x 9.8 = 2.842
