$$F = mg$$
- \(F\) is the force of gravity, measured in newtons (N)
- \(m\) is your mass, measured in kilograms (kg)
- \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity, approximately 9.8 meters per second squared (m/s²)
For example, if your mass is 70 kg, the force of gravity pulling on you would be:
$$F = (70 \text{ kg})(9.8 \text{ m/s²}) = 686 \text{ N}$$
Therefore, the force of gravity pulling on a 70 kg mass is approximately 686 newtons.
