At the end of the Giant Drop free fall ride, riders experience a large experience a large upward normal force to bring their falling bodies to a stop. Determine the normal force value required to accelerate a 52.1-kg physics student with an upward acceleration of 27.4 m/s/s.

Respuesta :

Newton's second law allows us to find the force applied to the student so that it has an upward acceleration of 27.4 m / s² is:

            F = 1.94 10³ N

Newton's second law says that the force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the body.

         ∑ F = m a

Where F is the force, m the mass and the acceleration of the body.

A free body diagram is a diagram of the forces without the details of the bodies, in the attachment we have a free body diagram of the system.

They indicate that the student's mass is 52.1 kg and his acceleration is 27.4 m / s², let's write Newton's second law.

           F - W = ma

            F = m a + W

Body weight is.

            W = mg

            F = m (a + g)

We calculate.

            F = 52.1 (27.4+ 9.8)

            F = 1.94 10³ N

In conclusion using Newton's second law we can find the force applied to the student is:

            F = 1.94 10³ N
