Answer:
Probably the more correct version of the story is that Newton, upon observing an apple fall from a tree, began to think along the following lines: The apple is accelerated, since its velocity changes from zero as it is hanging on the tree and moves toward the ground. Thus, by Newton's 2nd Law there must be a force that acts on the apple to cause this acceleration. Let's call this force "gravity", and the associated acceleration the "acceleration due to gravity". Then imagine the apple tree is twice as high. Again, we expect the apple to be accelerated toward the ground, so this suggests that this force that we call gravity reaches to the top of the tallest apple tree.
Answer:
1190 N
Explanation:
Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. The unit of force is Newton(N).
From the question,
F = ma................. Equation 1
Where F = average force, m = mass, a = acceleration.
But,
a = (v-u)/t................ Equation 2
Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1
F = m(v-u)/t.............. Equation 3
Given: m = 70 kg, v = 1.7 m/s, u = 0 m/s (from rest), t = 0.1 s.
Substitute into equation 3
F = 70(1.7-0)/0.1
F = 1190 N.

the weight of the balloon is .030 * 10 = 0.3 N
the weight of the gas of volume v is 0.54*10 N
The lifting force of a volume of v m³ of displaced air is 1.29v N
so, we need
1.29*10*v = 0.3 + 0.54*10*v
or
1.29v = 0.03+0.54v
