Apoundal is the force required to accelerate a mass of 1 lb,m (pound mass) at a rate of 1 ft/s^2. 1 poundal 1 lb,m*ft/(s^2) calculate the weight in poundals of an 148 lb,m object on earth

Explanation:

According to Newtons second law,

                         F = m × a

where,       F = force acting on object

                  m = mass of object

                  a = acceleration

On Earth,       a = g

where,      g = gravitational acceleration constant = 9.8

Now, convert g into as follows.

                    1 m = 3.280 ft

           g =

              = 32.144

It is given that m = 148 lbm. Hence, calculate force as follows.

                     F =

                        = 4757.312

                        = 4757.312 poundal

Thus, we can conclude that the weight in poundals of an 148 lbm object on Earth is 4757.312 poundal.

The human “family tree” may be better described as a “family bush,” within which it is impossible to connect a full chronological series of species, leading to Homo sapiens, that experts can agree upon.
