1.	In the expression for force F=ma, which mass, inertial mass or gravitational mass, does m represent ? Statethe reason for your answer.
Answer» SOLUTION : In the EXPRESSION F= ma, m stands for inertial mass. For F=ma, mass of the body `m = F/a` But mass of body MEASURED as the ratio of force to ACCELERATION is CALLED inertial mass.
