Answer:
2156 N
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Mass of satellite (m) = 220 Kg
Force (F) of gravity =?
The force of gravity exerted on the satellite on the surface of the earth can be obtained by using the following formula:
Force (F) of gravity = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g)
F = mg
Mass of satellite (m) = 220 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Force (F) of gravity =?
F = mg
F = 220 × 9.8
F = 2156 N
Thus, the force of gravity exerted on the satellite on the surface of the earth is 2156 N
