Question

what is the force of gravity acting on a point mass of 1kg released from a height of 1 m from the surface of Earth

Answer 1

Hey user here is your answer .
It's 9.8m/s

Answer 2

Hello Friend,

Use the equation, W=mg for both cases

For 1 case 1=9.8m hence m=1/9.8 kg

m=0.102 kg

as weight is 1kg given

For case 2 W=mg as m=1 kg given

Hence W=1 x 9.8 =9.8 N.


HOPE THIS HELPS..
