The correct answer is: Option (3) 9.8 N/kg

Explanation:

According to Newton's Law of Gravitation:

F_g = \frac{GmM}{R^2} --- (1)

Where G = Gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

m = Mass of the body = 2 kg

M = Mass of the Earth = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg

R = Distance of the object from the center of the Earth = Radius of the Earth + Object's distance from the surface of the Earth = (6371 * 10³) + 3.0 = 6371003 m

Plug in the values in (1):

(1)=> F_g = \frac{6.67408 * 10^{-11} * 2 * 5.972*10^{24}}{(6371003)^2} = 19.63

Now that we have force strength at the location, we can use:

Force = mass * gravitational-field-strength

Plug in the values:

19.63 = 2.0 * gravitational-field-strength

gravitational-field-strength = 19.63/2 = 9.82 N/kg

Hence the correct answer is Option (3) 9.8 N/kg
