The magnitude of gravitational intensity...

The magnitude of gravitational intensity at a point is 0.7 N/kg. What would be the magnitude of the gravitational force on a body of 5 kg mass at this point ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`implies` Intensity `I=F/(m) :. F= Im`
`:. F = (0.7)(5)=3.5N`
