Suppose you hang a 1.0 kg mass from a spring scale. But this time, instead of holding your hand still so that the acceleration is zero, you let your arm drop so that the mass accelerates downward at 5.2 m/s2. What force (how many Newtons) will the spring scale read while this acceleration is happening?
