The gravitation force is quartered when two objects' masses are halved without changing their distance.
Gravitational law states that the force of attraction and repulsion between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.
F=(KM1 M2)/r^2
K= Gravitation force constant
M1M2 = masses of the object
r = distance between objects
When M1 and M2 are halved, it becomes M1/2 and M2/2
F=(K M1/2 x M2/2)/r^2
F=(K (M1 x M2)/4)/r^2
F=(KM1 x M2)/(4r^2 )
Recall
F=(KM1 x M2)/r^2
Therefore
F=F/4

As stated in the statement, we will apply energy conservation to solve this problem.
From this concept we know that the kinetic energy gained is equivalent to the potential energy lost and vice versa. Mathematically said equilibrium can be expressed as
Where,
m = mass
= initial and final velocity
g = Gravity
h = height
As the mass is tHe same and the final height is zero we have that the expression is now:
We make use of the equation: v^2=v0^2+2a Δd. We substitute v^2 equals to zero since the final state is halting the truck. Hence we get the equation -<span>v0^2/2a = Δd. F = m a from the second law of motion. Rearranging, a = F/m
</span>F = μ Fn where the force to stop the truck is the force perpendicular or normal force multiplied by the static coefficient of friction. We substitute, -v0^2/2<span>μ Fn/m</span> = Δd. This is equal to
It depends on your weight, your hieght, and how fast you are falling
