Question

You drop balls of varying mass, foam ball, soccer ball and a bowling ball, from the same height on Earth.What does this tell us about the force of gravity on objects with different masses?

Answer 1

Force of gravity is given by the formula

`F=mass* acceleration\text{ due to gravity}`

Acceleration due to gravity is constant for the earth, so

`F\propto\text{ mass}`

Thus, the force of gravity increases with increasing masses.
