Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the gravitational force acting on a 1 kg mass at the surface of the Earth? (g = 9.8 m/s²)
  • Step 1: Identify the mass of the object. In this case, the mass is 1 kg.
  • Step 2: Identify the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the Earth. This value is given as g = 9.8 m/s².
  • Step 3: Use the formula for gravitational force, which is F = mg, where F is the force, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
  • Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula: F = 1 kg * 9.8 m/s².
  • Step 5: Calculate the result: F = 9.8 N.
