Answer the following based on Newton's Second Law:
• How much net force is required to accelerate a 12 kg mass at 3 m/s^2?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
Force=mass(acceleration)
36N
• What would be the acceleration of a 4 kg mass subject to a net force of 20 Newtons?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
20N= 4kg (acceleration)
5m/s/s
• If you exert a force of 20 Newtons on a 10-kg object and it accelerates in the direction of your force at 1.5 m/s^2, then how do you know there are other forces acting on the object besides your own?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
20 N=10kg(1.5m/s/s)
10kg(1.5m/s/s) does not equal 20N it equals 15N so there must be some force in the positive direction aiding the force.
• What is the total of all those forces and in what direction does this total act?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :
The total of all the forces would be 5 N acting in the positive direction
Net force= Mass(a)+additional force.
