Answer:
20 N.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of block B (m) = 2 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
Gravitational force (F) =..?
Force is simply defined as the product of mass and acceleration i.e
Force = mass (m) × acceleration (a)
F = ma
Thus, we can say that the gravitational force on block B will be the product of the mass of block B and acceleration due to gravity i.e
Gravitational force (F) = mass of block B (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g)
F = mg
Mass of block B (m) = 2 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
Gravitational force (F) =..?
F = mg
F = 2 × 10
F = 20 N
The, the gravitational force exerted on block B is 20 N
