What is the acceleration of 7 kg mass if a force of 68.6 n is used to move it toward earth?

113.4/17+9.8 meters per second squared. If we are ignoring air resistance that is. If we are not, then the acceleration depends on the object itself. In any case, the calculation turns out to be about 16.5 meters per second squared, or a little more than 50 feet per second squared. (distance per time squared i.e. m/s^2 is the unit for acceleration)

∙ 13y agoThis question should really bother anybody who reads it. How can we use the
same unit (kg) for both a mass and a force ? The answer is: No way ! Here on
W.A., we continue day after day writing "kg is not a unit of force" until we're
blue in the face, and sure enough, the very next day, a new question shows up
asking "how many kg does something weigh?", or "how many kg does it take to
lift something?", or "how fast will something accelerate if you push on it with
some kg ?" They're all improper questions, because 'kg' is not force, and you
knew that when you posted your question, because you started out talking about
a mass of 7 kg. You know that mass and force are not the same thing, because
your question is clearly asking about how a certain amount of force will affect a
certain amount of mass.

a = F / m = 17.64 / 9.8 = 1.8 meter per second2

What increases as force increases?
F=ma, or force equals the product of mass and acceleration. Assuming that the mass of the object does not change, then acceleration increases as force increases.
What is the acceleration of a 24 kg mass pushed by a 6N force?
Acceleration is 0.25m/s2 (A = force/mass).
Why does the object with less mass have a larger acceleration?
Newton's Second Law says force = mass * acceleration. If you push on two objects with the same force, the object with the smaller mass will have a greater acceleration.
How are Force Acceleration and Mass related?
(Force on an object) = (the object's mass) times (its acceleration)
Why does the skier accelerate while earth does not seem to move at all?
gravity The force on each other is the same (action and reaction) The skier and the earth accelerate toward each other according to: acceleration = force / mass. But because the earth is so massive , (compared to the skier) its rate of acceleration is immeasurably small, as is the distance it travels. > This is only concerned with the vertical component of the skiers motion.
A center-seeking force related to acceleration is force?
F = m * a Force = mass * acceleration
Do you attract earth or earth attract you?
Both.-- The gravitational force is always actually a pair of forces.-- They act in both directions, on both bodies, and they're equal.-- Whatever your weight is on Earth, that's also the Earth's weight on you.-- When you jump out of an airplane, you accelerate toward the Earth, andthe Earth accelerates toward you.(Of course, since the Earth's mass is something like 59,740,000,000,000,000,000,000 timesas much as your mass, your acceleration is 59,740,000,000,000,000,000,000 times as muchas the Earth's acceleration toward you.)
Explain how a football and a soccerball can have different accelerations if pushed by the same force?
Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.Force = mass x acceleration, therefore, acceleration = force / mass.
Does force describe mass or acceleration?
Neither. Force causes acceleration of mass. Mathematically, Force = Mass * Acceleration.
Does earth pull all objects with same force?
No. The two-way force of gravity between the earth and any object is proportional tothe mass of the object.The thing that's constant for all objects, regardless of their mass, is their acceleration,as the earth and the object fall toward each other.

What creates force?
Mass and acceleration creates force (Mass*Acceleration=Force).
Which one is attracting with a larger force you or earth?
Both.-- The gravitational force is always actually a pair of forces.-- They act in both directions, on both bodies, and they're equal.-- Whatever your weight is on Earth, that's also the Earth's weight on you.-- When you jump out of an airplane, you accelerate toward the Earth, andthe Earth accelerates toward you.(Of course, since the Earth's mass is something like 59,740,000,000,000,000,000,000 timesas much as your mass, your acceleration is 59,740,000,000,000,000,000,000 times as muchas the Earth's acceleration toward you.)
When a diver jumps off a diving board gravity pulls him or her to the water What is the reaction force to Earth's gravity true or false?
The diver and the Earth actually pull on each other with the same force. But with Force = mass x acceleration, rearrange that to: Acceleration = Force / mass. With such a large mass, the Earth is accelerated by a miniscule amount. Compared to the acceleration of the diver, it is not noticed.
Do you divide force and mass to get acceleration?
you have to take mass and acceleration to get force
What happens to the acceleration as you increase the mass?
As per Newton's first law of motion, if the applied force remains the same, an increase in mass will result in a decrease in acceleration. In contrast, if the acceleration were to remain the same when the mass increases, there must be a greater force applied.
Why is the mass of an object same on the moon as it is on earth but the weight is different?
Mass is the amount of matter in an object. It does not change based on gravity. Weight is the force an object exerts 'downward' due to gravitational acceleration. Force = (mass)*(acceleration). Acceleration due to gravity is less on the Moon than on Earth.
