The force of gravity pulls down on your school with a total force of 400,000 newtons. The force of gravity pulling down on your school would be exactly twice as much if your school: a Had twice as much mass b Was twice as tall c Had twice as much volume d Covered twice as much area

a Had twice as much mass

Explanation:

The data that we have is:

"The force of gravity pulls down on your school with a total force of 400,000 newtons. "

First, remember that, by the second Newton's law that:

F = a*m

F = force

a = acceleration

m = mass

In the case of the gravitational force, the gravitational acceleration is a constant: a = 9.8m/s^2

Then, if we want to have twice as much force the only thing that we can change in the equation is the mass:

Then if the initial force is written as:

F = a*m

twice as much that force is written as:

2*F = a*x

x is a variable that represents the new mass.

We know that F = a*m

2*F = 2*a*m

2*a*m  = a*x

2*m = x

Then, if we want to have twice as much force, we should have twice as much mass.
