Question

A space probe recovered an 8.5-kg sample of rocks from the surface of Mars. The acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 3.7 meters per second squared. What is the weight of the sample of rocks on the surface of the earth?

Answer 1

Answer: 31N

Explanation:F = m x a

F = 8.5 x 3.7

F = 31.45

F = 31 (rounded)

F = 31 N
