Concept #1: Weight Force & Gravitational Acceleration
Practice: The Mars Rover Perseverance weighed about 10,000 N while on Earth. After it reached the surface of Mars, it weighed about 3790 N. What is the gravitational acceleration on Mars?
Concept #2: Vertical Forces And Acceleration in the Y-axis
Practice: A 3-kg bucket is being pulled upwards by a cord. The tension in the cord is 35 N. What is the acceleration of the bucket? (The mass of the cord is negligible, which means you can assume m_cord = 0.)
