Enter the total near force and the total mass into the calculator to determine the Acceleration from Near Force. 

Acceleration from Near Force Formula

The following equation is used to calculate the Acceleration from Near Force.

A = NF/m

  • Where A  is the Acceleration from Near Force (m/s^2)
  • NF is the total near force (N)
  • m is the total mass (mass)

What are the units for Acceleration from Near Force?

The most common units for Acceleration from Near Force are m/s^2.

How to Calculate Acceleration from Near Force?

Example Problem:

The following example problem outlines the steps and information required to calculate the Acceleration from Near Force.

First, determine the total near force. In this example, the total near force is measured to be 450 (N).

Next, determine the total mass. For this problem, the total mass is calculated to be 10 (mass).

Finally, calculate the Acceleration from Near Force using the formula above: 

A = NF/m

Inserting the values from above and solving the equation gives us: 

A = 450/10 = 45 (m/s^2)
