Question

What is the mass of an object whose weight on earth is 196 n

Answer 1

Mass of an object= the gravitational constant/ weight of the object.

The mass of an object whose weight in 196n is going to be 19.6 kg if the gravitational constant is taken to be 10g.

And it is 20 kg, in case the gravitational constant is taken to be 9.8 g.

Answer 2

Answer:

20 Kg.

Explanation:

We have,

• Weight (W) = 196 N
• Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

To find,

• Mass (m)

Solution,

Using the formula,

=> W = mg

We get

=> m = W/g

Substituting we get,

>> m = 196/9.8

∴ m = 20 Kg
