Question

The weight of an object is the product of its mass, m, and the acceleration of gravity, g (where g=9.8 m/s2). Of an object’s mass is m=10. kg, what is its weight?

Answer 1

Answer:

98 N

Explanation:

The weight of an object is given by

W = mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Here we have an object with mass

m = 10 kg

Therefore, its weight will be

$W=(10 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=98 N$
