A5-kg concrete block is lowered with a downward acceleration of 2.8 m/s2 by means of a rope. the force of the block on the earth is: a. 35 n, down b. 35 n, up c. 14 n, down d. 14 n, up e. 49 n, up

When the body touches the ground two types of Forces will be generated. The Force product of the weight and the Normal Force. This is basically explained in Newton's third law in which we have that for every action there must also be a reaction. If the Force of the weight is pointing towards the earth, the reaction Force of the block will be opposite, that is, upwards and will be equivalent to its weight:

F = mg

Where,

m = mass

g = Gravitational acceleration

F = 5*9.8

F = 49N

Therefore the correct answer is E.

explanation:

a fuel engine ( known as a gasoline engine in american english )is an internal combustion engine with spark ignition, designed to run on petrol (gasoline) and similar volatile fuels.
