A magnetic particle weighing 3.6 grams is pulled through a solenoid with an acceleration of

6m/s2. Compute the force in pounds acting on the particle.

1 answer

m = 3.6 * 10^-3 kg
F = m a
F = 3.6 * 10^-3 * 6 m/s^2
F= 21.6 * 10^-3 = 2.16 * 10^-2 = 0.0216 Newtons
You can convert that to pounds if you insist. Your class seems to be into unit games.
