A crane pulls upwards on a 250 kg bin with a force of 3200 N.

• Calculate the force of gravity on the bin.

1 answer

The force of gravity on the bin can be calculated using the formula:

Force of gravity = mass x acceleration due to gravity

Given:
- Mass of the bin = 250 kg
- Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

Force of gravity = 250 kg x 9.8 m/s^2
Force of gravity = 2450 N

Therefore, the force of gravity on the bin is 2450 N.
