Pull Force Calculator, Formula, Pull Force Calculation

Pull Force Calculator:

Enter the values of mass of the object, m_(kg) and acceleration, a_(m/s2) to determine the value of pull force, F_p(N).

The pull force is the force required to move an object by applying a continuous force that causes the object to move towards the source of the force.

Pull force, F_p(N) in Newton is equated by the product of mass of the object, m_(kg) and acceleration, a_(m/s2) in metres per second squared.

Pull Force, F_p(N) = m_(kg) * a_(m/s2)

F_p(N) = pull force in Newton, N.

m_(kg) = mass of the object in kilograms, kg.

a_(m/s2) = acceleration in metre per second squared, m/s².

Suppose you need to pull a sled that has a mass of 50 kg and you apply an acceleration of 3m/s². Calculate the pull force exerted on the sled.

Given: m_(kg) = 50kg, a_(m/s2) = 3m/s².

Pull Force, F_p(N) = m_(kg) * a_(m/s2)

F_p(N) = 50 * 3

F_p(N) = 150N.

The pull force is 200 Newtons and the acceleration is 4 m/s². Find the mass in kg.

Given: m_(kg) = 200kg, a_(m/s2) = 4m/s².

Pull Force, F_p(N) = m_(kg) * a_(m/s2)

m_(kg) = F_p(N) / a_(m/s2)

m_(kg) = 200/4

m_(kg) = 50kg.
