Gravitational force on an object on an imaginary planet is half of that of the gravitational force on same body on earth. Find: (i) the value of acceleration due to gravity on this planet and (ii) weight of an object of mass 50 kg on that planet. (Take g = 10 m/s2)

Answer:
Weight is given by the formula,
W
=
m
g
W
is the weight of the object in newtons
m
is the mass of the object in kilograms
g
is the gravitational acceleration
On Earth,
g
=
9.8
m/s
2
. So, the object's weight on Earth will be:
W
=
50
kg
⋅
9.8
m/s
2
=
490
N
