Question

A mass of 10gm is moving with an acceleration of 5cm/sec². What is the force acting on it?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass = 10 gm.

Acceleration of the particle = 5 cm/sec^2.

5 cm/sec is 0.05 m/sec^2.

10 gm can be converted into 0.01 kg.

The reason why we do this : We want to reduce it to their standard units. Force can be described as In Newton's or in Kgm/sec. We need to convert it appropriately.

F = ma = 0.01 x 0.05 =

$= 5 \times {10}^{ - 4}$

Newtons.
