Question

The force due to gravity is F mg`F=mg` where `g = 9.8 N/kg`. What is the force due to gravity on a 41.63-kg object ?

Answer 1

`407.974N`

Explanation:

We have `g = 9.8N/(kg) and m = 41.63 kg`

The force gravity exerts on the object would be:

`F = mg`

`F = 9.8N/cancel(kg) * 41.63cancel(kg) = 407.974 N`
