Whgat is the force of gravity on a body of mass 150 kg lying on the surface of the earth? ( Mass of earth = 6×10^24; Radius of earth = 6.4×10^6; G = 6.7×10^Nm^2/ kg^2)

force of gravity = mass × acceleration due to gravity
= 150 kg × 9.8 m/s
= 1470 Newton

ny608855: But ans 1472 h
Riya09: 9.8 is not the accurate value
Riya09: to get 1427 as answer,
Riya09: we have to substitute{ (Gravitational constant × mass of earth) ÷ distance^2 } instead of 9.8 m/s
Riya09: do it and you will get 1472 as answer
Riya09: hope it helps

Answer:

mass=150kg of object

mass of earth=6×10^24 kg

radius=6.4×10^6m

G=6.7×10^11nm^2/kg^2

force=GMm/r^2

f=6.7×10^11×6×10^24×150/(6.4×10^6)^2

as we know,g=GM/r^2=9.8 m per second square

therefore, force=9.8×150

98/10×150=1470 newton

hence 1470 newton is the force applied by the object on the earth.....

1470 newton is the correct answer ......

hope it helps u

plz mark me brilliant....
