Answer:

force of gravity, F = 980 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the box, m = 100 kilograms

first we will need to find the magnitude of the force of acting on a box. we can used it with Newton second law.

F = ma

a = acceleration

Here,

F = mg

g = acceleration due to gravity

F=100\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2F=100 kg×9.8 m/s2

F = 980 N

Hence, the force acting on the object is 980 N.
