As it pulls itself up to a branch, a chimpanzee accelerates upward at 2.4 m/s2 at the instant it exerts a 260-N force downward on the branch.Find the magnitude of the force the chimpanzee exerts on the Earth.

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]F=208.83N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Acceleration [tex]a=2.4m/s^2[/tex]

Force of Branch [tex]F=260N[/tex]

Generally the Newton's equation second law for Force is mathematically given by

 [tex]ma=F-mg[/tex]

 [tex]m=\frac{260}{2.4+9.8}[/tex]

 [tex]m=21.31kg[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]F=mg[/tex]

 [tex]F=(21.31)(9.8)[/tex]

 [tex]F=208.83N[/tex]
