A force 50 g cm h-2 acted on an object. How to find this force in SI units?
Prabhu R.
A force of 50 kgf acts on a body of mass of half ton Find the acceleration produced in the body. [Take g = 10 Nkg-1]
Adi S.
The only force acting on a $5.0$ -kg object has components $F_{x}=20 \mathrm{~N}$ and $F_{y}=30 \mathrm{~N}$. Find the acceleration of the object. Use $\sum F_{x}=m a_{x}$ and $\sum F_{y}=m a_{y}$ to obtain $$ \begin{array}{l} a_{x}=\frac{\sum F_{x}}{m}=\frac{20 \mathrm{~N}}{5.0 \mathrm{~kg}}=4.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \\ a_{y}=\frac{\sum F_{y}}{m}=\frac{30 \mathrm{~N}}{5.0 \mathrm{~kg}}=6.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \end{array} $$ These components of the acceleration are shown in Fig. $3-10 .$ From the figure, $$ a=\sqrt{(4.0)^{2}+(6.0)^{2}} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}=7.2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} $$ and $\theta=\arctan (6.0 / 4.0)=56^{\circ}$.
