Calculate the weight of following objects on earth (assuming g:10m/s2)or 10N/kg
500g
500g = 0.5kg, so the weight of the object is 5N.
To calculate the weight of an object, you need to multiply its mass by the acceleration due to gravity.
Given:
Mass of the object = 500g = 0.5kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10N/kg or 10m/s²
Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity
Weight = 0.5kg × 10N/kg
Weight = 5N
So, the weight of the object is 5N.
To calculate the weight of an object on Earth, you can use the formula:
Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity
Given that the mass of the object is 500g (grams), we need to convert it to kilograms, as the formula requires the weight to be measured in Newtons (N) and the mass to be in kilograms (kg).
To convert grams to kilograms, divide the mass by 1000:
500g ÷ 1000 = 0.5kg
Now that we have the mass in kilograms, we can calculate the weight:
Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity
Weight = 0.5kg x 10N/kg
Weight = 5N
Therefore, the weight of the object weighing 500g on Earth is 5 Newtons.
