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 = 16.1m
F = 
F = 32.2m
F =

Vocaloid · Answer

F = km since F varies directly w/ mass
you are given k = 32.2 ft/s/s
see which equation best matches this situation
