Near Force Formula
The following equation is used to calculate the Near Force.
NF = m * A
- Where NF is the near force (N)
- m is the mass (kg)
- A is the acceleration (m/s^2)
To calculate the near force, simply multiply the mass by the acceleration.
What is a Near Force?
Definition:
A near force is defined as the total net force near an object. This excludes other forces at far distances.
How to Calculate Near Force?
Example Problem:
The following example outlines the steps and information needed to calculate Near Force.
First, determine the acceleration. In this example, the acceleration is found to be 40 m/s^2.
Next, determine the mass. For this problem, the mass is found to be 3kg.
Finally, calculate the Near Force using the formula above:
NF = m * A
NF = 40 * 3
NF = 120 N
