Question

What is the weight of a body on the earth having mass 30kg.Also calculate in KGF

Answer 1

Explanation:

weight= mass × acceleration due to gravity

W =m × g

= 30× 9.8 ( g is constant 9.8)

= 294 Newton

Calculation in kgf:

1 Newton= 0.102 kilogram-force

thus... 294 Newton= 294× 0.102 kilogram-force

= 29.988 kgf
