On Earth, the gravitational force of a certain military drone is 6.0 kg. What is the helicopter's gravitational force if it is sitting on Mars? On Earth, g = 9.8 ms2 On Mars, g = 3.71 ms2
To find the gravitational force on the helicopter on Mars, we can use the formula:
Force = mass × acceleration due to gravity
On Earth:
Force (drone on Earth) = 6.0 kg × 9.8 m/s^2 = 58.8 N
On Mars:
Force (helicopter on Mars) = mass × acceleration due to gravity on Mars
Force (helicopter on Mars) = 6.0 kg × 3.71 m/s^2 = 22.26 N
Therefore, the helicopter's gravitational force on Mars is 22.26 N.
