Alright, well.
How do I get mass out of pounds?
I need to figure out what the force is in Newtons on someone when they fall 1 meter.
The person weighs 95 pounds.
Do I need to convert it to kilograms then divide that by the gravitational constant of 9.81 m/s?
or can I just do 95/9.81?
1/1 = 1m/s^2
0 ~ 1 / 1s = 1m/s^2
9.7 x 1 = 9.7
F = 9.7
First I did speed, which was 1/1 (1 meter for 1 second) = 1m/s^2
Then I did acceleration, and then M x A = 9.7
Is it correct?
NOTE: This is not homework.
