Question

3. What is the mass of a paratrooper who experiences an air resistance of 400 N and an acceleration of 4.5 m/s2

Answer 1

Answer:

88.89kg

Explanation:

The formula for mass is m=F/a. If we plug in the values, we get m=400N/4.5m/s^2. The mass is 88.89kg. We know that the unit is in kg because one newton (N) is 1kg*m/s^2. The m/s^2 is cancelled out by the acceleration, and we are left with kg.
