Respuesta :
To find a change from weight to mass, one must divide weight by gravity (represented by 9.8 m/s².) Thus, the equation will be 24.5 N divided by 9.8. This will equal 2.5 N.
Answer:
Mass of the potted plant, m = 2.5 kg
Explanation:
It is given that,
A potted plant has a weight of 24.5 N. We need to find the mass of the potted plant.
Weight of an object is product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. It varies from one location to another because of the acceleration due to gravity varies.
W = mg
[tex]m=\dfrac{W}{g}[/tex]
[tex]m=\dfrac{24.5\ N}{9.8\ m/s^2}[/tex]
m = 2.5 kg
So, the mass of the potted plant is 2.5 kg. Hence, this is the required solution.
