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 assuming that you are standing on the surface of Earth, so that the force on the 1.0 kg mass due to gravity is 9.8 Newtons?

In this problem, we are given the mass of the object (m = 1.0 kg), the acceleration due to gravity…
