Calculate Force and Acceleration

Front

What is the unit for force?

Back

N (Newton)

Front

What is the mass of this object?

Back

2.5 kg

Front

How much does a suitcase weigh if it has a mass of 22.5 kg? Include units!

Back

220.5 N

Front

This object accelerates to the RIGHT. Solve for the unknown force.

Back

6 N

Front

If this object has a mass of 4kg, calculate its acceleration (you do not need to include direction).

Back

0.5 m/s^2

Front

What is the formula to calculate force?

Back

F = m * a

Front

What does 'm' represent in the formula F = m * a?

Back

'm' represents mass in kilograms.

Front

What does 'a' represent in the formula F = m * a?

Back

'a' represents acceleration in m/s^2.

Front

If a force of 10 N is applied to a mass of 2 kg, what is the acceleration?

Back

5 m/s^2

Front

What is the relationship between mass and acceleration when force is constant?

Back

As mass increases, acceleration decreases.
