What is the magnitude of the force of gravity acting on a box that has a mass of 100 kilograms and is at sea level? -10.20 newtons -98 newtons -1,020 newtons -980 newtons

I would just like to know if there are any formulas to solve this?

OpenStudy (isaiah.feynman):

F=ma, where a in this case is gravitational acceleration.

So in this equation, I would plug in 100kg for m, but what would I plug in for a?

OpenStudy (isaiah.feynman):

a will be 9.8mls^2.

Oh okay. Thanks! :)

No probs!
