    Understanding the Sign of 'g' and 'a': An Apparent Weight Example

    In my physics book the equation for apparent weight is given as FN = mg + ma where FN is the normal force, m is the mass of the object, g is the gravitational acceleration of the object (= 9.8 m/s2) and a is the acceleration of the system. For example the system could be someone standing on a...
