The force needed to accelerate a 68 kilogram-skier at a rate of 1.2ms2 is 81.6 Net forces ;
According to Newton's Second law: F = ma --- (1)
Where F = Force = ? m = Mass = 68 kg a = Acceleration = 1.2 m/s^2
Plug in the values in (1): (1) => F = 68 * 1.2 **F = 81.6 N **(The force needed to accelerate the skier at a rate of 1.2 m/s^2)
The force needed to accelerate a 68-kilogram skier at a rate of 1.2 m/s² is 81.6 newtons, according to Newton's Second Law of Motion. This is calculated using the formula F = m × a. The calculation assumes no friction is acting on the skier.
