Question

What is the force on a person’s hand, which is using a rope to accelerate a 5 kg block upward with an acceleration of 2.2 m/s 2 ?

Answer 1

F = 11 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mass of a block, m = 5 kg

Acceleration of the block, a = 2.2 m/s²

We need to find the force on the person's hand. Let it is F. We know that force is given by the product of mass and acceleration as follows :

F = ma

F = 5 kg × 2.2 m/s²

F = 11 N

So, the force on a person's hand is 11 N.
