Question

How much force is needed to produce an acceleration of 80 cm/s2
in a body of mass 500 g?

Answer 1

Answer:

Acceleration (a) =80cm/s

2

=0.8m/s

2

.

Mass (m) =500g=0.5kg.

Now, Force=mass×acceleration.

⇒F=0.5×0.8=0.4N.

Answer 2

Answer:

40000 dynes = 0.4 Newton(converting dynes to Newton by dividing the force value by 100000).

Explanation:

We know that,

We know that, F= ma (where F is the force acting on the body, and m is the mass of that body and a refers to how much the body is accelerated)

=> 80 × 500 = 40000 dynes = 0.4 N
