Question

At lift-off, an astronaut on the space shuttle experiences an acceleration of approximately 35 m/s2 upward. What force does an 80 kg astronaut experience during this acceleration?
I need answers ASAP!!

Answer 1

• Acceleration=a=35m/s^2
• Mass=m=80kg

According to Newton's second law

$\\ \sf\longmapsto F=ma$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto F=80(35)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto F=2800N$
