If a textbook weighs 37.2 N on Venus, and the book has a mass of 4.4 kg, what is the strength of gravity on Venus?

8.9 m/s2
8.9 m/s
I don't have enough information,
9.8 m/s2​

F=ma

Where F is force, m is mass and a is acceleration.


37.2N=4.4kg\cdot a\Longrightarrow a=(37.2N)/(4.4kg)=\boxed{8.45(m)/(s^2)}

Hope this helps.
