How can i solve 3 a, b,c it would be better if you send a picture of your work and you.

3.a). Use the triangle that you drew for problem #1 to calculate

the mass of this stone.

You know that its weight (Fg) is 3.0 N, and that its weight is (mass)x(g) .

Solve 3.a exactly the same way you solved #2.

They're the same problem, only with a different number for weight.

(And while you're looking back at problem #2,

please add the UNITS to your answer.)

3.b). The net force is the sum of all the individual forces

on the stone, AND their directions.

There are two forces acting on the stone: 12N up and 3N down.

Can you add those ? And get the net force of 9N up ?

3.c). Now it's time for " F = m A ".

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

Divide each side by (mass), and then you have

Acceleration = (net force) / (mass) .

You've already solved parts 'a' and 'b', so you KNOW the net force

and the mass. All you hafta do to solve part 'c' is pluggum in.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
