Convert 100 Newton into dyne

Arod of some material 0.20 m long elongates 0.20 mm on heating from 21 to 120°c. determine the value of the linear coefficient of thermal expansion [in (degrees c)^-1] for this material.

Ahot-air balloonist, rising vertically with a constant speed of 5.00 m/s releases a sandbag at the instant the balloon is 40.0 m above the ground. after it is released, the sandbag encounters no appreciable air drag. compute the velocity of the sandbag at 0.250 s after its release.
