Answer:
784N
Explanation:
To calculate weight, we use Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, which gives us the formula "Force = mass x acceleration". We would take the mass given, 80 kg, and multiply it times the acceleration of Earth's downward pull on that mass, 9.8 m/s/s. So the weight on Earth is 784 newtons.
