Question

11 fill in the blank 2 points
an object has a mass of 16.5 kg. what is the weight of the object on earth? (be sure your answer has the appropriate number of significant figures) (include the correct units: n, kg, m/s²) (put a space in between number and unit. example: -10 m/s²)
\\(\vec{f}_g = m\vec{a}_g\\)
mass:50 kg
weight:110 lbs
mass:50 kg
weight:42 lbs
earth
mars
type your answer...

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the formula and values

The formula for weight is $F_g = m\vec{a}_g$, and on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity $a_g= 9.8\ m/s^2$, mass $m = 16.5\ kg$.

Step2: Calculate the weight

$F_g=16.5\times9.8 = 161.7\ N$

Answer:

162 N
