Answer:
the answer is 20g
Explanation:
Data:
acceleration:5m/s2
force:100N
mass:?
solution:
force: mass*acceleration
mass: force divided by acceleration
mass:100/5
mass:20g
or another way of solving it is
force: mass*acceleration
100:mass*5
100/5 : mass
20g:mass
That's an urban legend that's been around for a long time.
It was tested on "Mythbusters". The conclusion was that
it would sting pretty good, and maybe raise a lump, but
it would never penetrate the skull, and it couldn't kill.
Torque = r x F
|F| = mg = 60 * 10 N = 600 N ( assuming g ~ 10m/s^2)
distance of fulcrum = torque / Force = 90/600 m = .15 m.
