Question

a mass of 30 kilograms. What’s the weight in newtons? Assume that acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 N/kg

Answer 1

Answer:

294

Explanation:

because N/Kg means newtons per kg so it is 9.8 x 30 as it's 9.8 newtons per kg.

Answer 2

Answer:

294 N

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the object: 30Kg

Acceleration due to gravity on Earth: 9.8m/s2

To determine the weight of the object in Newton (N), take the following formula:

N= mg, where

•        M is the total mass of the object

•        G is the acceleration due to gravity

From that we have,

W = 30 kg X 9.8m/s2

= 294 N

Thus, the weight of the object on earth is 294 N.
