Question

you are applying force on the pan of a single pan weighing balance and the pointer shows 100g. what is the force applied by you in newton?

Answer 1

Force = Mass and Acceleration
So in the question, you are provided the mass 100grams or 0.1 kg, and the acceleration due to gravity on Earth is $9.8m/s^2$.

[tex]\therefore force = mass * acceleration \\ \implies force = 0.1 * 9.8 \\ \implies force = 0.98N[/tex]

Therefore, the force applied by you is 0.98N.

Answer 2

Answer:

0.98N

Explanation:

the mass of the pan = 100g = 0.1kg

force of gravity = 9.8m/sec2 = acceleration

F = M * A

F = 0.1 * 9.8

F = 0.98N

. . Hence proved
