The acceleration due to gravity is given as:
g = GM/r²
<h3>
Derivation of gravitational acceleration:</h3>
According to Newton's second law of motion,
F = ma
where,
F = force
m = mass
a = acceleration
According to Newton's law of gravity,
F<em>g </em>= GMm/(r + h)²
F<em>g = </em>gravitational force
From Newton's second law of motion,
F<em>g </em>= ma
a = F<em>g</em>/m
We can refer to "a" as "g"
a = g = GMm/(m)(r + h)²
g = GM/(r + h)²
When the object is on or close to the surface, the value of g is constant and height has no considerable impact. Hence, it can be written as,
g = GM/r²

Answer:
7 meters, 2.8 meters
Explanation:
work done (nm) = force (n) * distance (m)
140= 20 * m
140/20 = m
m=7 meters
140= 50 * m
140/50 = m
m= 2.8 meters
More mass and less difference
According to scientists, the first fossil of a jellyfish first appeared approximately 500 million years ago. Or to be more exact, the Cambrian Period.
Hope I could help! :)
