Answer:
The weight of the book is, W = 53.9 N
Explanation:
The mass of the book, m = 5.5 kg
The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²
The weight of an object is defined as the product of of the mass and acceleration due to gravity,
W = m x g
Substituting the given values in the above equation,
W = 5.5 x 9.8
= 53.9 N
Hence, the weight of the book is, W = 53.9 N
