Question

The force of gravity on an object varies directly with its mass. The constant of variation due to gravity is 32.2 feet per second squared. Which equation represents F, the force on an object due to gravity according to m, the object’s mass?F = 16.1mF = F = 32.2mF =

Answer 1

F = 32.2m

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

F = 32.2m

Step-by-step explanation:

The force of gravity on an object is given by:

`F=mg`

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Here we have:

- An object of mass m

- The acceleration of gravity is expressed as
`g=32.2 ft/s^2`

Therefore, substituting into the formula above, we find that the force of gravity on the object is

`F=m\cdot 32.2 = 32.2m`
