Question

The weight of a body on the surface of the Earth is 196 N. Find the mass of the

body.​

Answer 1

196N

Explanation:

Mass also have same answer because weight called in physics is mass

Answer 2

$\red{\mid{\underline{\overline{\textbf{Answer}}}\mid}}$

Weight of a body is the force applied on it by acceleration due to gravity. Thus the weight of a body is the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity of that planet.

Now it is given that :-

• Weight of body = 196N
• Acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8
• Mass of body = ?

Now we can say that :-

$\maltese \: w = mass \: \times acceleration$

After putting the values we can say :-

$\mapsto \: 196 = 9.8m$

$\mapsto \: m = \frac{196}{9.8}$

$\mapsto \: m = \cancel\frac{196}{9.8}$

$\mapsto \: m = 2 0kg$

Therefore the mass of given body is 20kg.
