Answer 1

Heya...Empress Here..

> As you already know that a weighing machine is used to describe your weight and measure it.

> When we stand on it, we apply our weight downwards while upthrust of the surrounding air acts upwards. Hence, pur apparent weight decreases than the number of true weight.

> And this describes that our actual mass will surely be more than 42 kg.

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

The weighing machine measures this apparent weight and hence the mass indicated by it is less than the actual mass. Our actual mass will be more than 42 kg.
