d.88 n

Explanation:

The force exerted by gravity on the mass is 88N;

Gravitational force is usually experienced by two bodies with masses.

This force causes all objects on earth to accelerate at 9.8m/s².

Force of gravity = mass x acceleration due to gravity

In this case, the force exerted on the object by gravity will be the weight of the object.

Weight is a force applied gravity on a body:

Weight of the masses = Force of gravity = mass x acceleration

Given mass = 9kg

Force of gravity = 9 x 9.8 = 88.2N approximately 88N
