Question

What is the force on a 1670kg elevator accelerating at 6m/s square?

Answer 1

As per Newton's 2nd law

we know that

`F = ma`

it is product of mass and acceleration

here we know that

`m = 1670 kg`

also we know that

`a = 6 m/s^2`

so from above equation we have

`F = 1670 * 6`

`F = 10020 N`

so the force here will be 10020 N
