Exam 10: Force and Force-Related Variables in Engineering

Forces always come in pairs, equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

A force that will accelerate 1 slug of mass at a rate of $1 \mathrm { f t } / \mathrm { s } ^ { \mathrm { 2 } }$ is known as a

The weight of an object is the force that is exerted on the mass of the object by the earth's gravity.

In his second law, Newton observed that force and acceleration are
