Question

21. Use the following information to answer the question. A satellite is orbiting the earth at a height where the gravitational pull of the earth is given by the constant, 9.2. The force (in N) exerted by the earth on the satellite is 9.2 times the mass of the satellite (in kilograms). Write a function to define the force (F) as a function of the mass(m). A. $F(m) = \frac{9.2}{m}$ B. $F(m) = 9.2$ C. $F(m) = 9.2 + m$ D. $F(m) = 9.2m$
