The gravitational force on a body falling towards the earth is directly proportional to the
mass of the body. The gravitational force on a body of mass 2 kilograms is 19.6 Newtons.
A. Write a direct variation equation relating the mass, y, and the gravitational force in
Newtons, y, on the falling body


Sagot :

The equation would be y = kx with k being a constant.

Direct variation

Assuming the gravitational force is y and the mass of the body is x. y is directly proportional to the x.

Mathematically,

y = kx where k = constant.

If y = 19.6 Newtons and x = 2 kg, then

k = y/x = 19.6/2 = 9.8.
