Can you help me understand force=mass x accleration

Physics

Force = mass * acceleration

Here is an equation for force, used to calculate force. 

Look at it this way:-

Joules is used to measure force, while mass is measured by kg. Acceleration is measured by m/s/s (meters per second per second, or meters per second squared.)

joules = m/s/s * kg 

Which makes everything fit in just right! :D

What is the original source of energy for gasoline?
Yuki888 [10]
Gasoline comes from petroleum, which is a fossil fuel. Petroleum, coal and natural gas (methane) are all made in the earth's crust from the bodies of plants and animals that died long ago. That's why they are called fossil fuels.

The sun provides the energy that all life needs to grow and reproduce. Therefore, fossil fuels can be considered a form of solar energy that has been stored in the bodies of living things, and then concentrated in hydrocarbon deposits in the earth's crust.

The fact is that all the energy on earth comes from the sun, directly or indirectly, except for nuclear energy, which comes from radioactive elements that were made in other stars that existed before the sun.

Hope this helps!!!

If your weight is force created by gravity on your body, and therefore is the Earth pulling you down, what is the reaction force
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The reaction force is the force exerted by your body on the earth pulling upwards.

Explanation:

This can be explained using Newton's third law of motion which states that if object A exerts  a force on object B, object B exerts a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction on object A. One characteristics of these force are that they act o 2 different bodies. In this example, the earth exerts a force on you. The Newton's reaction force would be you exerting a force of equal magnitude on the earth.

A 620 kg moose is standing in the middle of a train track. A 10,000 kg train moving at 10 m/s is unable to stop and the moose en
ddd [48]

Answer:

This is an example of Inelastic colission

Explanation:

Step one:

given:

mass of moose m1 = 620 kg

mass of train m2= 10,000kg

Initial velocity of moose  u1= 0 m/s

Initial velocity of train v1 = 10m/s

combined velocity of the system is given as v

Applying the conservation of momentum equation we have

m1u1+ m2u1= (m1+m2)V

substitutting we have

620*0+10000*10= (620+10000)V

100000= 10620V

divide both sides by 10620

V = 100000/10620

V=9.41m/s

The velocity of the moose after impact is 9.41m/s
