weight of a person in newton on mars who weigh 882N on earth ( g = 9.8m/s^2)
882 *3.8/9.8
To find the weight of a person on Mars, we need to use the formula:
Weight on Mars = Weight on Earth * (Gravity on Mars / Gravity on Earth)
Given:
Weight on Earth = 882 N
Gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s^2
The gravity on Mars is approximately 0.38 times that of Earth's gravity.
Gravity on Mars = 0.38 * Gravity on Earth
Calculating this value:
Gravity on Mars = 0.38 * 9.8 m/s^2
Gravity on Mars ≈ 3.724 m/s^2
Now we can substitute the values into the formula:
Weight on Mars = 882 N * (3.724 m/s^2 / 9.8 m/s^2)
Calculating this:
Weight on Mars ≈ 334.4 N
Therefore, a person who weighs 882 N on Earth would weigh approximately 334.4 N on Mars.
