A force and an energy are two quite different things. Energy is spent if you apply a force for a certain distance, so energy has units of force x distance (in the SI, newtons x meters).

If 5 newtons of force are pulling on 5 newtons of force?

If 5 newtons of force are pulling against another 5 newtons of force in opposite directions, there will be a net force of 0 newtons, resulting in no movement or acceleration. The forces are balanced and cancel each other out.


What happends if forces are unbalanced?

Movment. Ex.> force of 10 newtons-><-force of 5 newtons movement of 5 newtons->


What is the net force of 7 newtons left and 2 newtons right?

The net force is 5 newtons to the left (7 N - 2 N = 5 N).


Which is the greatest force 10pounds 10 kilograms 10 newtons 50newtons?

A force of 9.8 N is the force exerted on a 1 kilogram mass at rest by the force of Earth's gravity at sea level. So 10 N is the force of about a 1.02 kg mass (approximately 2.25 pounds force)This is a scalar measurement.


How much newtons of force does an elephant apply when it steps?

Which is the greater force 10 newtons or 5 pounds?

A 10 newton force is approximately 2.25 pounds-force, so the 5 pound force is greater.


What is 5.0 pounds converted to newtons?

Pounds do not convert into Newtons. Pounds are a measure of weight, and Newtons are a measure of force. However, there is also a unit of force called the pound-force, and 1 Newton is 0.22481 lbF.So, 5 lbF would be 5/0.22481 N or about 22 N.Protip: You can always ask Google "What is X units in other_units" and it will do the conversion for you. (Example: "What is 5 pounds in newtons" or "What is 3 quarts in liters")


What is the size and direction of the net force is one is pulling 7 and the other is pulling 5 newtons?

The net force is 2 newtons, calculated by subtracting the smaller force from the larger force. The direction of the net force depends on the direction of the larger force.


What is the formula for calculating the force in newtons when a mass of 5 kg is accelerated at a rate of 2 m/sec2?

The formula for calculating force (F) in newtons is F mass (m) x acceleration (a). In this case, with a mass of 5 kg and acceleration of 2 m/sec2, the force can be calculated as F 5 kg x 2 m/sec2 10 newtons.


What would the force of gravitation be if the distance between two objects is 500 newtons but is increased by 10 times?

A distance of 500 newtons? Newtons is a unit of force, not of distance.


What is the mechanical advantage of this machine if A system of pulleys is used to raise a load of bricks that weighs 1700 newtons. The force applied to the pulley is 340 newtons.?

The mechanical advantage (MA) of a machine can be calculated using the formula: MA = Load Force / Effort Force. In this case, the load force is 1700 newtons and the effort force is 340 newtons. Therefore, MA = 1700 N / 340 N = 5. This means that the pulley system provides a mechanical advantage of 5, allowing a smaller force to lift a heavier load.


What is the mechanical advantage of a simple machine that requires a force of 40 newons input to a 200 newton object?

The mechanical advantage of a simple machine in this scenario would be 5. This is calculated by dividing the output force (200 newtons) by the input force (40 newtons).
