What force must be provided to accelerate a 64-lb object upward at a rate of 2 ft/s2? (use g = 32 ft/s2.)

The force that must be provided to accelerate the object = 302.196 N

Explanation:

Force: Force can be defined as the product of mass and acceleration. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N).

Ft - W = ma Equation 1

Ft = W + ma Equation 2

Where Ft = force provided, W = weight of the object, m= mass of the object, a = acceleration of the object.

Given: mass = 64 lb, g = 32 ft/s² a = 2 ft/s²

Conversion: (i)  from 64 pounds to Kg = 64/2.2046

                      = 29.03 kg

  (ii)  from 2 ft/s² to m/s² = 0.3048 × 2 = 0.6098 m/s²

 (iii) from 32 ft/s² to m/s² = 0.3048×32 = 9.8 m/s².

and W = mg = 29.03 × 9.8 = 284.494 N,

Substituting these values into equation 2,

Ft = 284.494 + 29.03×0.6098

Ft = 284.494 + 17.7

Ft = 302.196 N

Therefore, the force that must be provided to accelerate the object = 302.196 N

the answer is kevlar
