- Force: Force is defined as the product of mass times acceleration.
- SI unit of force is the Newton (N).
Force = mass x acceleration
Calculation:
Given: mass = 50 kg, g = 10m/s2, load of weight = 50N.
Force applied by his feet is =
Ftotal = Force applied by porter + load of weight
Ftotal = 50 × 10 + 50
Ftotal = 550 N
