i posted this earlier but got a confusing answer so pls help as best as u can asap!
True or False
1. If a 40 kg person is accelerating at 10 m/s2, then the magnitude of the force acting on him or her is 400 N.
(1 point)
true
false
Multiple Choice
2. How much force is needed to make a 60 kg object accelerate at a rate of 2.0 m/s2? (1 point)
62 N
62 kg
120 N
120 kg
3. What is the acceleration of a 30 kg object when 180 N of force is applied to it? (1 point)
6.0 m/s^2
60 m/s^2
210 m/s^2
5,400 m/s^2
4. Which of the following equations shows how you would solve for mass if you knew the force acting on an object and the acceleration of an object?
(1 point)
m = f/a
m = fa
m = a/f
m = f − a
soooooo need help!!! dunno what they are talking about! cant guess!
pls help asap!!!!!
thanx in advance

Force = mass * acceleration
THINK !!!
this is for 4. so the answer is b m=fa
kill me if i got that wrong
F = ma
F(N) = m(kg) * a(m/s^2)
1 N = 1 kg-m/s^2
So, with that in mind,
#1: F = ma = 40kg * 10m/s^2 = 400 kg-m/s^2 = 400N
#2: F = ma = 60kg * 2m/s^2 = 120N
Note that you can eliminate two of the choices just based on the fact that they are not expressed in Newtons.
#3:180N = 30kg * a
(180 kg-m/s^2) / (30kg) = 6 m/s^2
Note that units cancel just like factors of numbers. That's how conversion factors work -- expressing some units in terms of other units.
Here, note that since
F = ma,
a = F/m = 180/30 = 6 m/s^2
#4:
Since F=ma, m = F/a
Don't forget your algebra I just because you're in physics now.
so the answers are
1. true
2. c
3. a
4. a
right...?
thanx Steve!:)
