Question

2 multiple choice 1 point what is the correct formula to calculate a force? f = ma^2 f = ma f = (1/2)mv^2 f = (1/2)ma 3 multiple choice 1 point what is the correct formula to calculate we w = (1/2)mg w = fm w = mg w = (1/2)mg^2

Explanation:

• For Force: According to Newton's second law of motion, force \(F\) is calculated as the product of mass \(m\) and acceleration \(a\), so \(F = ma\).
• For Weight: Weight \(W\) is the force exerted on an object due to gravity. Using \(F = ma\) (where \(a = g\), the acceleration due to gravity), we get \(W=mg\).

Answer:

1. B. \(F = ma\)
2. C. \(W = mg\)
