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?

OpenStudy (shamim):

given mass m=100kg

OpenStudy (shamim):

we know gravitational force is just equal to weight

OpenStudy (shamim):

so F=mg F=100*9.8 F=980 Newton

OpenStudy (shamim):

we know gravitational acceleration g=9.8 ms-2
