Question

Which of the following correctly states how to calculate the weight of an object on Earth given the object’s mass?
A.Subtract 9.8 m/s2 to get the object’s weight in newtons.
B.Divide the mass by 9.8 m/s2 to get the object’s weight in newtons.
C.Multiply the mass by 9.8 m/s2 to get the object’s weight in newtons.
D.Multiply the weight by 9.8 m/s2 to get the object’s mass in newtons.

Answer 1

Hey !!!!

________________________

We Know That,

Weight = Mass ×9.8 m/s^2

Hence,

We Have to Multiply Mass With 9.8 m/s^2

Hence,

Option (a) is correct
