Force Formulas
The acceleration force and mass of an object are related by Newton’s Second Law of Motion. This is expressed by the equation:
Net force (F) = mass (m) × acceleration (a)
This equation can be rearranged to solve for any of the three variables if the other two are known:
Formula: m = F / a
To calculate net force (F): Multiply the mass (m) of the object (measured in kilograms (kg)) by its acceleration (a) measured in meters per second squared (m/s²). The resulting unit of force is the Newton (N), where 1 N = 1 kg⋅m/s².
Formula: F = m × a
To calculate acceleration (a): Divide the net force (F) (measured in Newtons (N)) by the mass (m) of the object, measured in kilograms (kg).
Formula: a = F / m
To calculate mass (m): Divide the net force (F), measured in Newtons (N) by the acceleration (a) measured in meters per second squared (m/s²).
These formulas give the force of energy due to the position of mass and motion relative to other objects that provide motion energy.
Movement by Net force
Displacement of an object with mass changes its potential energy and, under certain conditions, enables the conversion of that potential energy into kinetic energy. This Kinetic energy can then be harvested to produce electricity.
When an object with mass is moved to a different position or configuration, the net force calculations are altered. The different position is called the distance (d) measured in meters.
Joules = (work=force x distance)
J = f x d
