Newton’s universal law of gravity tells us that F = G(m1m2/d2). Newton’s second law tells us that a = Fnet/m.
(a) With a bit of algebraic reasoning show that your gravitational acceleration toward any planet of mass M a distance d from its center is a = GM/d2
(b) How does this equation tell you whether or not your gravitational acceleration depends on your mass?
