Question

If I hit a 30g baseball and it accelerates at 10m/s^2, what is the force in Newtons acting on the ball?

Answer 1

Answer: 0.3N

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate force will be:

Force (N) = mass × acceleration

where, mass = 30g = 0.03kg

Acceleration = 10m/s²

Therefore force = 0.03 × 10 = 0.3N

The force is 0.3N.

Note that 1000g = 1 kilogram
