How to find the force of gravity on an object

Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 299 People

Calculate the Force of Gravity acting on an object that has a mass of 1.3 kg. The object is on Earth so use 9.8m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity. 

A. 0.13 N
B. 7.5 N
C. 12.7 N
D. 1270 N

To calculate the gravitational force acting on an object given the mass and the acceleration due to gravity, use the following formula.

Fg = m • g
Fg = 1.3 kg • 9.8 m/s^2
Fg = 12.74 N or about 12.7 N.

The solution is C. 12.7 N.
