For each of the following problems, give the net force on the block, and the acceleration, including units. 10 N 30 N. For problems 6-9, using the formula net Force = Mass • Acceleration, calculate the net force on the object.
Draw a picture below that shows an example of a balanced force (examples: a bird’s nest in a tree, a hat on a person’s head, or a light hanging from a ceiling). Show the forces acting on the object.
Determine the Net Force (Fnet) and use Newton’s Second Law (F = ma) to calculate your answer Section I: Complete 4 of these. 1) A force of 20 N acts upon a 5 kg block. Calculate the acceleration of the object.
For problems 6-9, using the formula net Force = Mass • Acceleration, calculate the net force on the object. 10) Challenge: A student is pushing a 50 kg cart, with a force of 600 N. Another student measures the speed of the cart, and finds that the cart is only accelerating at 3 m/s2.
Free-body diagrams for four situations are shown below. In each case, the net force is known, however, the magnitudes of some of the individual forces are not known. Analyze each situation by writing a Fnet equation to determine the magnitude of the unknown forces. F=ma Worksheet.
