Question

POSS An apple with a mass of 2 kg falls from a tree with an acceleration of 9 "What is the net force of the apple as it hits the ground?​

Answer 1

F = 19.62[N]

Step-by-step explanation:

By means of Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of the forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration, we can determine the force.

`F=m*a`

where:

F = force [N]

m = mass = 2 [kg]

a = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

`F=2*9.81\\F=19.62[N]`
