Given: F = m·a, an acceleration due to gravity of a = 32.2 ft/s2 , and an aircraft mass of m = 3105.6 slug a. How much does the aircraft weigh?

b. How much force would be required to accelerate the aircraft at 5 ft/s2

Along a frictionless surface?

c. Given that kg = 2.205 lb, what is the mass of the aircraft in kg?

d. Given that 1 N (Newton) = kg . m/s2 (F = m·a) and that the acceleration of gravity in the Metric System is 9.81 m/s2, how many Newtons does the aircraft weigh?
