Question

Amna is an astronaut. She measured her body mass using a bathroom scale. See the reading on the scale and note it down using the correct units.Body mass: 57.9 What is Amna’s weight on Earth?

Answer 1

Amna's weight on Earth = 57.9 * 10 = 579 Newtons.

Explanation:

Mass of astronaut on Earth = 600 N

Earth's gravity pulls on each kg with a force of 10N.

So weight of the astronaut = 600 / 10 = 60 kg.

Amna's body mass = 57.9.

Amna's weight on Earth = 57.9 * 10 = 579 Newtons.

Complete question is:  Amna is an astronaut. She measured her body mass using a bathroom scale. See the reading on the scale and note it down using the correct units. Body mass:57.9 Unit: kg What is Amna’s weight on Earth? (Hint: Earth’s gravity pulls on each kg with a force of 10N) _____________A second astronaut has a weight of 600N on Earth. What would be his body mass on Earth?
