Question

If the standard kilogram bar kept in Paris were subjected to a net force of 1 newton, what acceleration would it have as a result?

Answer 1

1 m/s^2
Because of
F=ma

Answer 2

It would have an acceleration of
`1(m)/(s^(2))`

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start defining the newton unit (Newton : N)

The N definition is

`N=Kg.((m)/(s^(2)))`

Where Kg is kilogram and
`(m)/(s^(2))` is an acceleration unit.

We can think the definition of newton as :

Given an object with a mass of 1 Kg subjected to a force of 1 N the acceleration that it experiments is
`1(m)/(s^(2))`

As a result, the standard kilogram bar kept in Paris will experiment an acceleration of
`1(m)/(s^(2))` If we subject it to a net force of 1 N.
