A70 kilogram mountaineer is standing on the summit of mt. everest. the distance between the mountaineer and the center of earth is 6.39 × 10^6 meters. what is the magnitude of the force of gravity acting on the mountaineer? (the value of g is 6.673 × 10-11 newton meter2/kilogram2. the mass of earth is 5.98 × 1024 kilograms.) a. 90.5 newtons b. 179 newtons c. 648 newtons d. 781 newtons

answer is 684 newtons on plato, got 100 on the test :)

684 N

Explanation:

The force of gravity between two objects having mass is given by:

where, G is the gravitational constant, , m is the mass of the man, and M is the mass of the Earth, and r is the distance between two masses,

Thus, the magnitude of the force of gravity acting on the mountaineer is 684 N.

answer: a) y=-8x+5

a) m= -8

b) m= -2

c) m= 7

d) m= 6
