The weight of an object is the product of its mass, m, and the acceleration of gravity, g (where g=9.8 m/s2). If an

object’s mass is m=10. kg, what is its weight?


Express the weight to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

\(m-mass\)
\(w-weight\)
\(g-gravitational\ acceleration\)

\(w=m*g\)

\(w=10kg*9.8m/s^2\)

\(w=98\frac{kg*m}{s^2}\)

You need to remember that \(1\frac{kg*m}{s^2}=1N\)

So final answer is \(w=98\frac{kg*m}{s^2}=98N\)
