You drop a 5 kg package of fig newtons down a 200 meters building, what is the force of impact?

Please answer in *figs*

You drop a 5 kg package of fig newtons down a 200 meters building, what is the force of impact?
f=ma

KE=1/2mv^2



f=(5)(200)(9.8)=(9.8)1000KGM/S^2

= (9.8)1000N

= 9.8 million fig newtons

= 9.8 million figs



since 1 Newton is also equal to the weight of 1,000 fig

newtons one metre (roughly 3 feet) above sea level!



...well, I tried. I'm figged out.
Reply:Does anyone really give a fig?
Reply:F= ma = 5*9.81 = 49.05 kg.figs



kg.figs means kg x figs
Reply:the more important question is does the force of impact condense the calories

or cause them to fly away, and are they still edible?
Reply:F = ma

F = 5kg x g

F = 5 x 9.8

F = 49 figs
