What is the mass of a body that weighs 1n at a place where g = 9.8m/s2?
Answers
Weight(newton)= mass(Kg) x acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s² in this case)
1= mass x 9.8
mass= 1÷9.8 = 0.102kg = 102 grams
hope it helps:)
Answer:
The mass of a body that weighs 1 N at a place where g = 9.8 is 0.102 kg.
Explanation:
Given:-
The weight of a body is 1 N at a place where g = 9.8 .
To find:-
The mass of a body.
As we know,
The weight of a body is equal to the mass of a body times the acceleration of the gravity, i.e.,
Weight of a body = Mass of a body × Acceleration of the gravity
Mathematically,
W = m × g
W = mg _____ (1)
It is given that the weight of a body = 1 N and g = 9.8 .
Substitute the values of W and g in equation (1), we get
1 = m × 9.8
m = 1/9.8
m = 0.102 kg (Approx.)
Therefore, the mass of a body that weighs 1 N at a place where g = 9.8 is 0.102 kg.
