📋 Real-world Force Examples
| Scenario | Force | Mass | Acceleration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gravity on 1kg object (Earth) | 9.81 N | 1 kg | 9.81 m/s² |
| Car accelerating (0-60mph in 6s) | ~4,000 N | 1,500 kg | 4.47 m/s² |
| Baseball pitch (90mph fastball) | ~160 N | 0.145 kg | 1,100 m/s² |
| Space shuttle launch | 30.16 MN | 2,030,000 kg | 14.86 m/s² |
| Adult pushing a car | ~300 N | 1,200 kg | 0.25 m/s² |
⚡ Types of Forces in Physics
Applied Force
A force applied to an object by another object or person. Example: Pushing a desk across a room.
Gravitational Force
The force of attraction between all masses in the universe. On Earth, it gives objects weight.
Normal Force
The support force exerted on an object in contact with another stable object.
Frictional Force
The force that opposes the motion of an object when in contact with another object.
Magnetic Force
The attraction or repulsion between electrically charged particles due to their motion.
Electrostatic Force
The force between electrically charged objects at rest.
Note: This calculator provides theoretical calculations based on Newton's Second Law. Real-world applications may vary due to factors like friction, air resistance, and other environmental conditions.
