Here, we are required to determine the load the unit exerts on the building in lb (force).
The load exerted on the building by the unit is : 3973.05lb(force).
The load exerted on the building by the cooling unit is the weight of the large cooling unit.
The Force(weight) is therefore equals to:
Force(weight)
= Mass × acceleration due to gravity
Therefore Force(weight) = 1800 × 9.81
Force(weight) = 17,658N.
Ultimately, the Newton unit can be converted to lb(force) by multiplying by the conversion factor.
Since 1N is equal to 0.225lb(force).
Then, 17,658N is equal to17,658× 0.225lb(force)
Therefore, the load exerted on the building by the unit is : 3973.05lb(force).
