If the units is expressed in terms of Newtons, that's a unit of force. The relationship between force and mass is Newton's Second Law of Motion.

F = ma

In this case, a is the acceleration due to gravity. Let's solve a first.

28.449 N = (2.9 kg)(a)
a = 9.81 m/s²

We use this to find the m of the second case.
F = ma
48.7 N = m(9.81 m/s²)
<em>m = 4.96 kg</em>

Mass of the object m = 2.9 kg 
Force F1 = 28.449 N 
F1 = m1 x a => a = F / m => 28.449 / 2.9 => a = 9.81, which is gravitational acceleration. 
In the same lab, a = g = 9.81, second object F2 = 48.7N = m2 x a 
m2 = F2 / a => 48.7 / 9.81 => m2 = 4.96 kg 
Mass of the second object m2 = 4.96 kg

An open cart is rolling to the left on a horizontal surface. A package slides down a chute and lands in the cart. Which quantity
Marat540 [252]

Answer: the horizontal component of total momentum

Explanation:

Since the open cart is rolling to the left on the horizontal surface, the quantity that has the same value just before and just after the package lands in the cart is the horizontal component of total momentum.

Momentum, is the product of the mass of a particle and the velocity of the particle. The change of momentum depends on the force which acts on it. The addition of the the individual momenta is the total momentum.
