Answer:
>400N is needed to balance that lever
Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) (Newton #2)
Net Force = (50 kg) x (6 m/s² down)
Net Force = (50 * 6) (kg-m/s² down)
<em>Net Force = 300 Newtons down</em>
Answer:
We say fictitious because the actual source of the centrifugal acceleration is somewhat indirect and the experience one has results from the unbalanced forces acting on the reference frame, not a force. Note, it is an acceleration not a force. For instance, imagine yourself on a swing.
