You launch a model rocket up into the sky. Right after launch the rocket is accelerating upwards at 10 m/s^2. What is the magnitude of the net force in Newtons on the rocket if the rocket has a mass of 0.1 kg?

Please give your answer with solution .

Fn = m*a = 0.1*10 = 1 N.

To find the magnitude of the net force on the rocket, you can use Newton's second law of motion, which states that the force acting on an object is equal to the object's mass multiplied by its acceleration.

Given:
Mass of the rocket (m) = 0.1 kg
Acceleration of the rocket (a) = 10 m/s^2

Using Newton's second law, we can find the net force (F):

F = m * a

Substituting the given values:

F = 0.1 kg * 10 m/s^2

F = 1 kg⋅m/s^2

The net force on the rocket is 1 Newton (N).
