Today, Gigabytes and Terabytes are the most common terms being used to describe the size of a hard drive. But what are they? This is where it gets quite confusing because there are at least three accepted definitions of each term.
A force acting on an object can cause it to accelerate. The relationship between force, mass and acceleration is given by the equation. force = mass Ã acceleration. The stopping distance of a car depends on two factors-thinking distance and braking distance. Under normal driving conditions, the thinking and braking distance depend on the speed of the car.
(By definition, one newton is that amount of force that accelerates a kilogram of mass 1 m/sec 2. ). The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/sec 2. The weight of a body is the force exerted by the earth on the body and this force accelerates the body at a rate of 9.8 m/sec 2. Thus the gravitational force on a 1 Kg object must be a force of 9.8 newtons.
