Classically, gravitational attraction is due to the masses of objects. It is inversely proportional to the square of the distances between the objects.
Magnetic attraction is due to the magnetism in objects which is due to uncompensated electron spins in certain atoms. The force due to magnetism less easy to put into one equation than gravity since magnetic fields can have different shapes, but the simplest one (the dipolar field) is inversely proportional to the cube of the distance between the magnetic dipoles.
Answer:
10.116 Pounds/45 newtons = 10.1164024 pounds/force
Explanation:
Divide the newtons by the rate of acceleration, which will give you the mass of the object. The mass will be in kilograms, because a single newton represents the amount of force needed to move one kilogram one meter. For our example, we will divide 10 N by 2 m/s/s, which give us a mass of 5 kg
