Would 300 pounds fall faster than a 100 pounds?
assuming that they are dropped from the same height, no, gravity accelerates all objects equally regardless of mass
What is the equation that describes the relationship among quantities of force mass and acceleration?
Force=mass*acceleration
How do you find acceleration given mass and distance?
Not enough information. One equation you can often use is Newton's Second Law: force = mass x acceleration Which, when solved for acceleration, gives you: acceleration = force / mass
F equals m x a?
Force equals Mass times Acceleration, or F = M x A
Is force measured in kilograms?
No, kilograms are mass units. The SI unit of force is the newton; a newton is a kilogram-meter per second per second.That means that under standard Earth gravity, a 1 kg mass weighs ... is attracted towards the Earth with a force of ... about 9.8 N.One thing that's a little confusing about "the metric system" for some people is that pounds are a unit of force (weight) but kilograms are a unit of mass. The US unit for mass is an uncommon one (it's called a "slug"). A slug is the amount of mass that can be accelerated at one foot per second per second by a force of 1 pound; to put it another way, on the surface of the Earth, 1 slug of mass has a weight of about 32 pounds.
If a skydiver with a mass of 70 kg accelerates to Earth at a rate of 9.8 ms2 due to gravity what is the force on the skydiver?
F = m A = (70) (9.8) = 686 newtons (154 pounds)Coincidentally, this is the same reading the skydiver sees when he steps on the bathroom scale.
10 examples of law of acceleration?
-- A car accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the car. -- A stone accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the stone. -- A Frisbee accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the Frisbee. -- A baseball accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the baseball. -- A dog accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the dog. -- A book accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the book. -- A canoe accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the canoe. -- An airplane accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the airplane. -- A planet accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the planet. -- A cow accelerates in the direction of the net force on it, at a rate equal to the magnitude of the net force divided by the mass of the cow.
If a skydiver with a mass of 70 kg accelerates to Earth at a rate of 9.8 ms2 due to gravity What is the force on the skydiver Explain how you determined the answer and its units?
Force = Mass/Acceleration = 70 kg x 9.8 m/s2 = 686 kg m/s2 = 686 NAccording to Newton's second law of motion, force equals mass times acceleration. Therefore, if you know both mass and acceleration, you can find the force. In this case, the mass of the person and the acceleration due to gravity were known. Since 1 N = 1 kg m/s2, the final unit is the newton.
What a small mass with a lot of force applied?
The object accelerates.
How does force lead to motion?
A shove on an open door will force it into movement (motion) and it will close. cw: Mass moves at a constant rate (including zero) when there is no force applied to it. With a force applied, the mass accelerates. Accelerates means it changes its motion.
When does a mass accelerate uniformly?
a mass accelerates uniformly when an external unbalanced and constant force is applied on it.
What discovery did sir newton make about force?
It always comes in pairs (equal & opposite), and it accelerates mass.
What discovery did sir isaac make about force?
It always comes in pairs (equal & opposite), and it accelerates mass.
Conditions in which the body is accelerating?
According to Newton's laws, the conditions in which a body accelerates are only those in which a force is acting upon it. With no force acting upon it, a body would not accelerate. With a force acting upon it, it would accelerate by an amount proportional to the force and inversely proportional to its mass.
An object accelerates at 3 meters per second when a 10 newton force is applied to it What force would cause this object to accelerate at 6 meters per second?
A 20-newton force would cause acceleration at 6 m/sec The acceleration is given by the formula F=ma (Force = mass x acceleration) so for the same mass, doubling the force doubles the acceleration for the same mass.
How does force affect stationary object of different masses?
Force accelerates stationary masses as acceleration a=f/m; theacceleration is inverse to the mass. The smaller the mass the larger the acceleration and the larger the mass the smaller the acceleration.
What discovery did Sir Isaac Newton make about force?
It always comes in pairs (equal & opposite), and it accelerates mass.
