which of the following accurately shows how to calculate the weight of a 20kg object

20kgx9.8m/s

20kg/mass of the earth

20kg/9.8m/s

20kgxmass of the earth

Verified Answer :

The answer to your question is "20kgx9.8m/s" because weight is the force an object is exerting on another object, and the formula used to calculate force is Force = Mass * Acceleration.

Answer:

\(\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{20\ kg \cdot 9.8\ m/s^2}}\)

Explanation:

\(\sf Weight \ (N)= mass \ (kg) \times acceleration \ of \ gravity \ (m/s^2)\)

\(W=mg\)

The mass of the object is 20 kg.

The acceleration of gravity is approximately 10 m/s².

\(W=20 \times 10\)

\(W=200\)

The weight of the object is 200 N.
