Calculate the weight of a new fast-food sandwich that has a mass of 0.1 kg (approximately the mass of a quarter pound). Think of
iragen [17]

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

If you plan to sell these things on Earth, then the acceleration of gravity in the neighborhood of your drive-throughs will be 9.81 m/s².

Weight of each sandwich = (0.1 kg) x (9.81 m/s²).

Weight of each sandwich = 0.981 Newton.

This is only  1.9%  less than 1 even Newton.

You should start by setting up one restaurant in New York, one in Chicago, one in LA, and maybe one in Miami or Tulsa.  Sell it with a different name in each place, and see which name sells best.

You might want to try calling it

-- Isaac's burger

-- Gravity grub

-- Prism Patty

-- Mass 'o Meat

-- Unit-wich

and see if anything catches on.

I think I'd simply call it a "Newton Unit".

1<br> A truck increases its speed from 15 m/s to 60 m/s in 15 s. Its acceleration is
MAVERICK [17]
Acceleration = (Vf - Vi)/t
Since Vf= 60m/s
Vi= 15m/s
T= 15s
=> a= (60m/s - 15m/s)/15s
= 3
So the acceleration is 3m/s^2
