Question

8.

Answer 1

This ratio (Fnet/m) is sometimes called the gravitational field strength

and is expressed as 9.8 N/kg ⇒ answer D

Explanation:

The gravitational field strength at a point is:

• The gravitational force exerted per unit mass placed at that point.
• This means that the gravitational field strength, g is equal to the force experienced by a mass of 1 kg in that gravitational field
• Gravitational field strength = Weight/mass
• Its unit is Newton per kilogram
• Gravitational field strength ≈ 9.8 N/kg

From the notes above

The ratio $\frac{F_{net}}{mass}$ = Gravitational field strength (g)

The answer is:

This ratio (Fnet/m) is sometimes called the gravitational field

strength and is expressed as 9.8 N/kg
