On Earth, the gravitational force of a robotic helicopter is 1.8 kilograms. What is the helicopter's gravitational force on Mars?
On Earth, g = 9.8m/ g?
On Mars, g = 3.71 m / g?.

To find the helicopter's gravitational force on Mars, we can use the equation:
Force = mass x gravity
Given that the gravitational force on Earth is 1.8 kg and the gravity on Mars is 3.71 m/s^2, we can substitute these values into the equation:
Force on Mars = 1.8 kg x 3.71 m/s^2
Calculating this, we find:
Force on Mars = 6.678 N
Therefore, the helicopter's gravitational force on Mars is approximately 6.68 N.
