A stone of mass 0.05 kg is thrown vertically upwards. What is the direction and magnitude of net force on the stone during its upward motion?

A

`0.49` N vertically downwards

B

`9.8` N vertically downward

C

`0.49` N vertically upwards

D

`0.98 ` N vertically downwards

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Here , Mass of the stone , m = 0.5 kg
The magnitude of net force on the stone is `F=mg=(0.05kg)(9.8ms^(-2))=0.49N` Its direction is vertically downwards.
