Question

a distant moon has a gravitational field strength of 2.8 n/kg on its surface. an object with a mass of 191 kg is placed on the surface. calculate the force of gravity on the object from the moon.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the formula for gravitational force

The formula for the force of gravity \(F\) is \(F = m\times g\), where \(m\) is the mass of the object and \(g\) is the gravitational field strength.

Step2: Substitute the given values into the formula

Given \(m = 191\space kg\) and \(g=2.8\space N/kg\). Then \(F=191\times2.8\).
