Answer 2

Answer:

The answer to the question is 10 kg i.e the mass of the object is 10 kg.

Calculation:

As per the question, the weight of the object w = 98 N.

We are asked to calculate the mass of the object.

Quantitatively the weight of an object is defined as the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Mathematically weight w = m × g

Here, g is the acceleration due to gravity and m is the mass of the body.

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth is

g = 9.8m/s²

Hence, weight of the object w = m × g

⇒

$m = \ \frac{w}{g}$

=

$= \frac{98N}{9.8\ m/s^2}$

=

$= 10 kg$

Hence, the mass of the object is 10 kg.
