In physics class, carrie learns that a force, g, is equal to the mass of an object, m, times its acceleration, a. she writes the equation as g = ma, then realizes that each of her homework problems asks her to solve for acceleration. she rewrites the formula as = a. using this formula, what is the acceleration of an object with f = 7.92 newtons and m = 3.6 kilograms? express your answer to the nearest tenth.

Your problem statement is missing the formula Carrie came up with. It should be The one she started with, divided by m.

... G/m = a

For the values given, the acceleration is

... (7.92 N)/(3.6 kg) = 2.2 m/s²

The unit of newtons is abbreviated N.

1 N = 1 kg·m/s² so dividing by kilograms leaves units of m/s², which are the units of acceleration.

Very likely, your question is not concerned with the units, just the number: 2.2. It's a straight division problem, easily handled by hand, by calculator, or in your head (after you realize 7.92 = 7.2×1.1 = 2×3.6×1.1).

126.66 m²

step-by-step explanation:

the pertinent area formula is a = πr², where r is the radius.

here, a = π(6.35 m)² = 40.32π, or approximately 126.66 m²
