The correct Answer is:
To find the gravitational field intensity at a point where a body of mass 1.5 kg experiences a gravitational force of 45 N, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Gravitational Field Intensity**: Gravitational field intensity (I) is defined as the force experienced by a unit mass placed in the gravitational field. It is given by the formula: \[ I = \frac{F}{m} \] where \( F \) is the gravitational force and \( m \) is the mass of the object. 2. **Identify the Given Values**: - Gravitational force \( F = 45 \, \text{N} \) - Mass \( m = 1.5 \, \text{kg} \) 3. **Substitute the Values into the Formula**: Using the formula for gravitational field intensity: \[ I = \frac{F}{m} \] Substitute the known values: \[ I = \frac{45 \, \text{N}}{1.5 \, \text{kg}} \] 4. **Calculate the Gravitational Field Intensity**: Perform the division: \[ I = 30 \, \text{N/kg} \] 5. **State the Final Answer**: The gravitational field intensity at that point is: \[ I = 30 \, \text{N/kg} \]
