an object near the earth's surface is in a state of free-fall. The object is experiencing a downward force of 194 n. What is the mass of the object

Respuesta :

When an object is under free fall then it means the net force on the object is only due to gravitational attraction force

So here we have

[tex]F_{net} = mg[/tex]

so in order to find mass we can use

[tex]m = \frac{F_{net}}{g}[/tex]

here given that net force on the object is

F = 194 N

[tex]m = \frac{194}{9.8}[/tex]

[tex]m = 19.8 kg[/tex]

so the mass of the object must be 19.8 kg
