How do I compute the following calculation with the different units of energy? 70kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 2m
actually u'll get the unit of energy after the multipliction
kg m/s^2 is the unit of force and 'm' is the unit of displacement
so answer will be (98*14) joule
how did you get 14?
70*2* 9.8 = 140* 9.8 = 14 * 98 = 1372
so, just for my general knowledge as this is my first physics class in college... I can just multiply out the numbers, and then change the symbol accordingly depending on what it is that i'm multiplying? I took Bus Calc last semester so i'm used to not being able to combine terms if they aren't the same lol
in this expression 1st term is mas 2nd term is acceleration 3rd term is displacement so mass times acceleration is force and frce times displacement is work done...which has the unit of energy
ahhh gotcha.. thank you so much! :)
