<span>The force of a system can be measured by formula P=mf where P is the force, m is the mass of the system and f is the acceleration of the system. The formula is known as Newton's second law of motion.</span>

The definition of force is given by the secon Law of Newton: Force = mass * acceleration.

So, the basic components of the formula for finding force are mass and acceleration. That is, if you know the mass of an object and the acceleration of it, you can find the external force (the net external force) that is acting over the object.

There are other formulas for finding force for special systems. For example, for springs, you use the law of Hook: Force = - k *x^2. Where k is the elastic constant of the spring and x is the displacement from the equilibrium point.

So, depending on the contex you could need different formulas. Without more contex I'd say you are talking about the second law of Newton: Force = mass * acceleration.

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$m_{H_2O}=9.24gH_2O$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since there is a 2:2 mole ratio between sodium peroxide and water according to the given reaction, it is possible to apply the following stoichiometric setup for the calculation of the required mass of water:

$m_{H_2O}=40.0gNa_O_2*\frac{1molNa_O_2}{78gNa_O_2}*\frac{2molH_2O}{2molNa_O_2} *\frac{18.02gH_2O}{1molH_2O} \\\\m_{H_2O}=9.24gH_2O$

How do I identify significant figures in chemistry?

Komok [63]

1) START counting for sig. figs. On the FIRST non-zero digit.

2) STOP counting for sig. figs. On the LAST non-zero digit.

3) Non-zero digits are ALWAYS significant.

4) Zeroes in between two non-zero digits are significant. All other zeroes are insignificant.

What are some examples of a physical change? (list more than 2 examples)

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Examples of physical change include changes in the size or shape of matter. Changes of state, for example, from solid to liquid or from liquid to gas, are also physical changes. Some of the processes that cause physical changes include cutting, bending, dissolving, freezing, boiling, and melting.
