Question

an individual has a weight of 735 newton. what is the individuals mass? show the approriate equation

Answer 1

Answer:

75 kg.

Explanation:

Weight = mass times acceleration due to gravity

w =m×g

Therefore,mass=w/g = 735/9.8 = 75 kg.

Answer 2

Answer:

$75 \mathrm{Nm}^{-1} \mathrm{s}^{2}$

Explanation:

The weight of a body or the object in terms of Newton is 735 N.

The formula to convert weight into mass is equivalent to Force equal to mass multiplied by acceleration.

The acceleration in terms of gravity is 9.8 N/m2  

Therefore, to find the mass of the 735 N weight is

$W=M \cdot g$

Where,

M is the mass of object or body, g is the gravity of the object, W is the weight of the object.

Putting the values in the formula:

$W=M \cdot g$

$735=M .9 .8$

Therefore, the mass of object is 75 $\mathrm{Nm}^{-1} \mathrm{s}^{2}$
