You have it, but
net force includes the weight...
F=m(a+g)
I thought I was supposed to use F = M x A for this one, but I keep getting the answer wrong. Help please?
net force includes the weight...
F=m(a+g)
In this case, the mass of the bucket (M) is given as 11 kg and the upward acceleration (A) is given as 2.4 m/s². To find the force exerted by the rope on the bucket, you simply need to substitute the given values into the formula and calculate.
F = M x A = 11 kg x 2.4 m/s² = 26.4 N
So, the force exerted by the rope on the bucket of water is 26.4 Newtons. Please check your calculations, ensuring that you have properly multiplied the values and used the correct units to arrive at the correct answer.
