There should be a way to measure the forces that apply to an object with thyme

that's all

you can measure acceleration and divide it on mass :mrgreen:

it would be better to multiplicate mass and acceleration

Good idea. Those are called Dynamo meter.

you can measure acceleration and divide it on mass


We could in a free movement, but not in static case.

Still you can manage to make a device using a piston, a spring, and kilinich's probe turning on the piston. And then the scene.my.K1angle gives you the force applied. Or by comparing position of the device with the position of the piston.

You can always calculate the net force from acceleration, but you can't divide into force components unless you know some of them. (like gravity)
