Answer to Question #259826 in Mechanical Engineering for Jool

Question

The acceleration of high-speed aircraft is sometimes expressed in g’s (in multiples of the standard acceleration of gravity). Determine the net upward force, in N that a 90 kg man would experience in an aircraft whose acceleration is 6 g’s.

Answer 1

F=ma

But a=6g

F=m*6g

=90*6*9.81

=5297.4N
