Question

a bowling ball is falling from the top of a building. The mass of the ball is 6kg, what is the force of the ball while it falls

Answer 1

58.8N

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is defined as mass times acceleration,
`F=ma`.

Since there's no external force acting on the ball, only gravitational acceleration will act upon it. Given
`m=6kg` and
`a=9.8m/s^2`,;

`F=ma\\=6* 9.8\\=58.8N`

Hence, the force acting on the ball is 58.8N
