Hi.
Can you clarify for me the equation for g-force below:
F= ma + mg
I got this equation from my lecturer. He asked the class to determine how was the formula above formulated. But this is not a homework. Is the equation above true for g-force? If it's true, how does the formula come about?
I thought g-force is given by (as stated by Newton's law of universal gravitation):
F = G m1m2/r^2
I really can't see how these two equations are equal. Could you help me out? Thanks!
